B-day party

It's Brandon's 17 birthday. He showed me his 12 stitches he got on his forearm from a few nights ago, in the wrong part of town, running his mouth. He lives with my mom, so I have to do a lot of praying for his safety. Her/his town isn't so bad, but he goes to the bigger one 20 min. away. since the knifing. We have agreed to pull him out of school and send him to job corp. He will no longer be risking his life for false friends. he's my first born, I could not lose him to stupid stuff.
He's with me tonight. I hope he is happy. I'm feeling good today, just fatigued. Depressed. Is that normal. I'm crying off and on all the time and am not sure why? I'll add pix tomorrow from the party tonight. goodnight all.

Hanging out with my family. Good times. The boys are into the New Kids on The Block. Like I was 15-20 years ago. It's so cool. Them singing and dancing to my all time favorite band back together. And it's something they will always remember about me. I always talk to them about my favorite stuff. And all the things each one of them have in common with me. I quiz them on occasion so they never forget. I still remind Brandon, 17 tomorrow of his childhood. There were a lot more good times, that he needs to be reminded of, he's a negative teen-ager. I need to stay positive with him, all of them.

Oct. 10, 2008 Brandon's 17 B-Day is tomorrow. I hope he goes to job corp. He wants to now, we'll see. He needs it badly. I think my cancer has gotten him thinking about being a better person. Everything happens for a reason. Maybe, just maybe this was the thing to get him to start thinking about life and how he wants his to go. I hope good comes out of this.

Day after chemo. feeling good, hope it lasts. Thanks to all who have been on my blog, all of the support. But, stop making me cry. Just kidding. I will keep you all updated as I go through my journey. This helps to here about you're stories and words of support and encouragement.

thanks, Stacy

I have lost 72 lbs. on Weight Watchers since April '08.

I feel wonderful. Went from a size 22 to 8. I have lost about 15 more lbs. since the after picture. I'll post a new pix soon.

I don't know what to do with Brandon. He'll be 17 Oct. 11. He is into some trouble I just know it and I don't know what to do about it. I am afraid for him. God be with my baby.
