Home Sweet Home

I didn't grow up here ( Mom and Dad built this house to accommodate family and grandkids, and now great-grandkids- and they are great:) but this house feels like home. Right now I'm listening to the birds singing their hearts out and the luscious green of spring woods is wafting through the window.... mmmmm.

I kept Dan awake a lot last night with many pain related requests-so he is still sleeping and I've been laying here reading all of these entries from all of you. This is one of those times in my life when words fail me at every turn. Whether it is trying to describe how beautiful spring woods at Mom and Dad's is, trying to describe to Dan what my body is experiencing, or trying to let you know how much I appreciate your love and support... can't possibly capture it. My kids might say that part of my problem has to do with my present drug use:) Just know that I feel like I'm existing in a protected warm hug.

Schedule at CClinic this week is Tues- Eco test (heart); Thurs Pet test ( to find out the stage of cancer); Fri- bone marrow biopsy in AM then appt. W/ Dr Jagadeesh- oncologist in PM . My friend Bob Martin taking me to Clinic on Tues and then to Marcy's I'm staying at Marcy’s all week come home sometime Friday PM.

Presently Dan, Mom, Dad, and all are trying to help me/ us with whatever they can- my biggest issue is pain management- hoping that what Dr. Jagadeesh said is true... I will have immediate relief following the first couple of Chemo treatments. So basically in about 2 weeks, I should feel better.

I love you and thank you for all your prayers and words of encouragement:)
