With the holiday season, I am taking the time to reflect and count my blessings. My mom's health is getting better and better every day. While her surgery took a major toll on her body, each day she is getting stronger and feeling more like herself. 

Last week she had another set of scans and a recheck of her AFP (cancer marker). Her scans are clear, aside from a pesky kidney stone. Her AFP has continued to decrease! With this good news, my mom has started back at work and is keeping her normal schedule. 

She even got her first dose of the COVID-19 vaccine! 

I hope this holiday season brings you all blessings as well. In the Gray household, we are grateful for the time we get to spend together.
