The current "Big Picture"

Deb spent much of this week at the local hospital getting blood and platelets. Until a few days ago, she was taking 3x the dosage for 2x a week in an attempt to put a halt to the cancer that had seemed to be increasing in size at our last tests in Arkansas. Because of the tough chemo, her platelets and blood along with energy all went south. She has mostly rested for the past weeks.

So, this week has no chemo so that when we get to Arkansas on the 19th for a week of tests the chemo will have cleared out so tests will show the status of her body, not the chemo. It will be our last visit with Dr Nair before he changes positions. Dr Van Rhee will be taking Deb's case. Dr Nair is from India and Van Rhee from Holland. Both are excellent!

Deb's body has limitations but her mind is still planning projects! She has so many household improvements whirring around in the gray matter. We check them off  as completed a lot slower than they are thought of.

Someday?

  1. Deb, you have never let anything stop your project planning! And Vern, you have always been right there getting them from the Honey Do list to the Honey Done list. Reminds me of Dr. and Mrs. Owens!! Love, Mary Roberts
