May 26th
Well, I made it through my last chemo without too much trouble. I started getting sick on Sunday night but called the doctor early Monday morning, went in that afternoon and started hydration at the hospital again the same day. I have to go the rest of this week for the hydration and shots to increase my red blood cells, otherwise all went great. I have my CTScan around the 24th of June and know it will turn out to be NEGATIVE.
Mom had her ulner nerve surgery on Monday morning, she is doing pretty well with it, except for the not bending or using the arm, she wants the bandages off like yesterday and does take them off a lot. The doctor wants her stitches to stay in at least a month to insure that she doesn’t bust it open and she can’t use it for at least a week, when she goes back to see him. I think all in all she is doing pretty good with it. She sure has been through a lot of crap this past year and come out of it amazingly well.

We went to the park/lake here in town today, had a BBQ, watched Robert, Crystal and her brother Josh fish and a very good time. This is the first time in so very long that we all went somewhere just to have fun, long before I got sick even. I really enjoyed myself, it felt wonderful being outside with the warm wind on my face and the sun on me. Mom enjoyed herself too, most of the time, although she did act like a nay sayer most of the day. She has always been like that though, always looking for and expecting the worse.
I hope all of you have a wonderful and safe Memorial Day. Please don’t forget to remember yourselves also.
