Almost 3 months of treatment complete

Okay, so I said I would update every week and now it has been a month since my last post. In some ways, I think that is good as things have been going pretty good so not a lot to update. Mom is doing pretty good all in all - has her "good" week and her "bad" week. Mom & Tim even made a long weekend trip to visit us in Chicago at the beginning of May. It was awesome that they could visit - lots of quality time w/ the grandkids and Mom & I even made it out for "girls night" w/ some of my neighbors.

She is still going to treatment every other Monday and almost to 3 months complete (started treatment on Mar. 9th). After her next treatment, she will likely be getting her "scan" to see how the treatment is working. They did check her "tumor markers" from her blood work about 3 weeks ago, the results were inconclusive. Although one of the checks improved slightly; another marker stayed the same or was slightly lower. I know Mom is ready to see how this treatment is going and we are all praying for the best results.

I'm sure many of you were thinking of Sharon on Mother's Day. We were sure to make last weekend special for Mom and organized for her to get 4 gifts for 4 days - one from each of us kids. She had a good weekend spent w/ family - Travis & Tara both made it back & Tyler was there to spend a great Mom's day w/ her.
