Thanksgiving Eve
Day #16 is the day before Thanksgiving. Everyone (my kids and the Ogles) are upset as I will have to celebrate the day alone in this room. No one can eat with me as anyone in my room must be masked. So I’ll order the Turkey tomorrow and talk on the phone. I’m here bargaining for more time. I’m acting like this is work and I do what they tell me (yes I do!). I can sacrifice one Thanksgiving for the hope of many more.

Hi June, I am one of Whitney's friends from NY. I just read your entire blog to date. It is such an incredible story, but this is my favorite post. I can't begin to imagine what you are going through but I do know that your sacrifices are appreciated and so worth it to the people who love you! My mom just passed recently, but we had 6 years with her since she was diagnosed with breast cancer and I'm thankful for every single day!!! Like you, she 'bargained for time' and fought so hard to be here for her family & friends. You sound like an amazing woman as well, Whitney always speaks the world of you. You and your family are in my thoughts - good luck & stay strong! ~Maggie Farr
