Thanksgiving

A little late with this post, been out of sorts for a while.

Had a blast Thanksgiving, Julia and I drove up to the mountain house to spend the holiday with family. We drove up Wednesday night, my brother and his wife were doing the same. Girls and Alex stayed up with us and talked and lightweight partied till about 1:30 AM or so. Brianna bailed earlier to go into the computer room to play WOW, but we all had a great time.

 

Thanksgiving day my Elisa's parents came up. Her dad was diagnosed with Pancreatic cancer almost exactly a year prior. I was glad he came because he and I are going through very much the same things in our lives now.

 

We talked for at least an hour on the supplements and alternative medications he is taking to help with his cancer. The cannabis treatments are really a god-send to helping him with his situation. He had contracted Pancreatitis shortly after his diagnosis so was unable to get started on Chemotherapy until they had gotten that under control. The cannabis helps immensely with keeping the immune system fully functional and keeping the Pancreatitis from re-emerging. Just the fact that he is still here over a year after being diagnosed gave me vast amounts of hope.
