The Jebber Family Blog

This evening, I went to visit my Dad, and while I was there, he received the most amazing news one could receive after the two weeks we just lived...If you want to call it that. His liver and lymph nodes were free of cancer cells. After he received the news from the doctor on the phone, he and I shared an extremely deep and and joyous cry. Never in my life have I felt like a weight was actually lifted from my entire body than I did at that moment. His surgeon was able to take out all of the cancer in the colon, and said that he will still need to go through 8-12 rounds of chemo.

Thank you to everyone for EVERYTHING!. The cards, the flowers, the, "stopping by even though I asked you not to, but you insisted because I had been in my pajamas for 3 days", the extremely "mean" emails telling me what an idiot I am being by ignoring the numerous phone calls and emails. (you know who you are, and I love you more than life...hahahahaha), babysitting my kids so I could do...well, lets be honest, so I could sulk.
Thank you.
Thank you for sending my Daddy cards and calling him. I didn't realize how much he would appreciate that, but it has really made him feel so special! Thank you for that. You guys are so incredible.

Tomorrow we will have Jordyn's 2nd birthday party, and he won't be here, but he insisted that I not cancel anything. This will be the first celebration in 31 years that my Dad will not be apart of, and you know what??? I'm THRILLED! Not that he won't be here, but because my heart can breath a huge sigh of relief for him. For all of us. Thank you to God for all of your awesomness!
