On top of not having internet, I have been so busy lately! I recently moved into a new apartment in NJ with my boyfriend and have been unpacking like a mad person! Really bummed about leaving Philly, but it was necessary. A lot has been happening in my personal life that lead up to the move... My mom's health was slowly decreasing. In January she was a healthy 140 pounds. The last week in June my mom hit 109 pounds. The doctors thought it was Pancreatic Cancer. They sent her in for all of these tests to find out what was causing the rapid weight loss. My Dad decided it was time to sell the South Philly house to help pay for my Mom's medical bills. The only way I could describe how sickly my mom looked was a holocaust victim. She looked anorexicly skinny and it became painful for her to sit because she no longer had a butt, she was sitting on her tail bone. I thought she was on her death bed. My family and I prepared for the worst. Come the first week in July my mom comes prancing into the Philly House saying how she gained a pound and that they had found the source of the problem. One of my moms anti-rejection meds (for her kidney) was actually tearing her apart from the inside. The doctors changed her medication and now she's doing great! So, in the end everything worked out. Family is happy and healthy, I'm back to work, got a new apartment with my man and my cat in this really cool town, and I got my internet up and running. YAY! Thanks life for keeping me on my toes and reminding me to appreciate all the little things!
