Where did Tuesday Go?

Wow, it's already Wednesday. Where did Tuesday go? Well a friend of Kristi's knew a lady who bred shih tzu's. She over bred and she had to get rid of them. She was giving some away, so we had to hurry and drive to her house clear across town to look at them and decide if we wanted one before 10:00 because Kolby had a chemo treatment at 10:30. Kolby and I finally got there and she picked out the cutest puppy ever. He looks alot like Kosmo. We had Kylie and Jeff meet us at the hospital to babysit the puppy while Kolby went for her treatment. Then when we went inside, the nurses said she could have totally brought him in with her. We were bummed! Anyways, they did her blood work and all her levels were really high. Which is really really good. She had her treatment, but this time she had an extra dose of a different type of chemo which she only has to have 5 more times. This treatment knocked her out for the rest of the day. Oh, and Kolby didn't want to hold the new puppy untill it had a bath. Which is smart anyways. Oh...we hesitated a little before we called John to tell him about the puppy. Not knowing how his reaction would be, but then again, if Kolby wanted the puppy, I know he would have gone out and pick one out for her. :o) Anyways, we needed to pick out a name for him. We told Kolby to pick one out, but she wanted the family to decide. John said we needed to use a "K" name. John suggested the name Keemo. We loved it. So Kolby's new dog's name is Keemo (Key-mo). Such an appropriate name for the occasion.

  1. That is so, so sweet. Now at least chemo with a "K" doesn't suck--LOL! Hoping this tougher round of chemo goes well. Lots of love.

  2. Yes, very fitting name. I love it! I bet Kosmo is excited (or jealous?) :)

Father's Day

Today was a great day for our family. Kolby went to church. It was a challenge , but it was really important for Kolby to go to church today with her dad. She got up, got ready and she looked beautiful. I really wish I would have taken pictures of the girls with their dad, but we were in such a hurry to get off to church that I forgot. Next time I will for sure. She was pretty emotional at church. It was a lot for her to get ready and go to church for the first time in a while. She wanted to arrive a few minutes late, and leave a few minutes early. It is really hard for Kolby to see people, only because of all the different emotions she is feeling right now. She gets very emotional when people hug her and express their love and support. She loves it, but right now, she cries every time she has a new visitor or sees people. So, please do not get offended if Kolby is quiet when you see her or visit with her. It's just how she is right now, and that's ok . Everyone deals wit...

A Very Generous Gift!

Brinley Truman, an eight year old girl in our ward and a dear friend of our family over heard her parents discussing Kolby and their desire to make a donation to "Keeping Kolby." Brinley asked her parents, Tom and Taralee, what they were talking about and Taralee explained to Brinley that they were going to donate money to the Cramptons because they wanted to show them that they love them and also because all the medicines and procedures that Kolby has to have cost a lot of money. Brinley told her parents that she wanted to give her money too. She went into their kitchen, climbed on the counter and got her money off the top of the fridge. When she got down she handed her mom 5 one dollar bills, 4 nickles, and 7 pennies. Her mom told her that she didn't have to give her money and that they would donate money as a family and Brinley said, "No, I want to use this!" Taralee told her that she should keep her money since she doesn't get money very often and they d...

ONE YEAR CANCER FREE!!!

I am beyond blessed! I finally hit my one year mark on May 22, 2012. After going through chemo for a year and waiting for the those cancer cells to be gone, I have been free from it for a whole year! I cant even begin to tell everyone how excited i am! For my one year, I did some of my favorite things. I went to lunch with Kylie at Panda Express, Outback for dinner with my dad and Gabby and then went and got ice cream at Baskin Robbins! :))
