ash 7th grade

Ashley is in the 7th grade now doing ok expect math as usual. but this yr hasnt been the greatest in homeschooling. i have been to many docs since oct when my fam dr found a lump in my neck and on jan 3rd was diagnosed with thyroid papillary stageII cancer.. to say the least ashley has been homeschooled alot by her aunt kathy my hubbys sister who homeschools her boys. in a few weeks ashley can not be home with me for a week or so i have to get radioactive iodione therapy aka... RAI or I_131  drs all call it differently some call it ablation than treatment which i dont know the difference in that but its all greek to me when they talk about it... when i get the I-131 its a one pill dose and get a scan before it and after it, and ashley cant be around me neither can hubby or anyone, i could hurt them and they dont admit people anymore to an isolated room cost to much money they say they dont care about ppl they care about money. i dont want to hurt my family with this but i have no choice to stay in my home alone without them for about a week and do some good cleaning up after it wears off of me.
So ashley willl be at Kathys to be schooled i mainly have her do math and grammar there and whatever else Kathy wants to do with her.  i think she said something about a report too. she will be taking her to her piano lessons as well luckily we have the same teacher and will teach all 3 kids the same day.
this cancer will mess up schooling for awhile after my first dose in march (i have to do a low iodine diet before it) its in march cuz i had 2 surgeries on my thyroid 6 weeks apart from each other last being feb2 so im healing before i see the endo dr again then get treatment after diet then in 6 months have to be checked to see if i need another treatment. they told me likely i will cuz they dont think ill be cancer free in 6 months, i wish i would tho. 
we have done alot of home EC this yr shes been helping me do laundry and such since i cant lift a laundry basket for 3 weeks since surgery and she been helping and learning to clean and cook and gro shop this yr and will continue next yr as well. cant believe she will be 13 in may and that our evaluation will be in a few months time seems to fly feels like yesterday we started KGN, and now shes a 7th grader.
