Merry Christmas 2013!

We suppered at my brother's, he and his wife put on the whole spread themselves; it was fantastic. They fed roughly 30 people and still had tons of leftovers. I truly am thankful that our whole family was together this year. :)

I hope Mrs. Wiz is doing well, I understand it's a tough surgery. I have a friend that had a double mastectomy as she had the same gene as Angelina Jolie. It was her second bout with breast cancer. It's been a couple years now and she is doing well. We both wish you and the Mrs a very happy and blessed New Year ahead.

Mum wants to donate her body to medicine and since she is now in the final stages of cancer she has insisted that my sister make the necessary arrangements. Worked out quite well and everything was filled in submitted and so on to which mum said she could now die happy, to which my sister replied that yes she could provided that she didn't die between Christmas & New Year because the Medical School was shut and not accepting donations.

Mum is currently sleeping about 20 hours a day and is close to the end so it was a very real possibility that she may see Christmas but not the New Year. She is now determined to see January till at least the 10th so her wishes will be for filled.

One of the bad things of knowing people who work in the wrong places. She's still insisting that she gets her way and the poor guy who runs the Body Donation Program must hate her as she's been harassing him ever since she found out that they closed between Christmas & New Year. Crazy what you find funny when people are dying.
