THANK YOU!

Mom asked that I include a grateful thank you for all the notes, phone calls, cards, prayers, and support she has received. You wouldn't believe it, but she has received a card in the mail almost everyday (only 1 or 2 days she hasn't) since this all began! In only a few weeks over 50 people have left her a note on this site, and the number of phone calls & prayers are unmeasurable. Thank you so much for all everyone has done. Although not a great way to find out how many friends & loved ones are truly in your life, it truly does help Mom and all of us to know that there is so much support.

Mom had her 2nd chemo-treatment last week. Her treatment went fine, and the side effects seem similar as the last treatment although she seemed to get right through the week and even worked a few full days at the end of the week. She had a slight alteration of her drugs because of a minor infection in her incision. They are being cautious as they didn't want it to get any worse. The chemotherapy drugs do significantly drop her white blood count that drops her immune system to help heal the incision. She then received a shot after the chemo was complete to boost her body to help produce more white blood cells as well as taking an antibiotic.

We had a great visit home, and had fun distracting Mom. It just so hard to leave & just need to plan a trip home so we can count-down to that day.

Thanks again for all of your support...keep the notes, cards, and prayers coming!
