Roller Coasters






It has been an incredible roller coaster for the last two and a half weeks. It has taken a long time before I could sit down and update this thing.

Cancer is an unbelievable journey of peaks and valleys. They have an appointment for MD Anderson for the end of the month. She has successfully completed her first round of chemo. It ended on Saturday. They then tried to wean her off the IV drugs and onto pill forms and discharged her late Monday night. SHe deteriorated quickly while at home. She couldn't keep anything down and became dehydrated quickly. Dad brought her back to the hospital last night and she was readmitted. SHe is now under the care of a new doctor(who we wnated from the beginning) and he has assigned her a case worker who is trying to expedite her leaving to Houston ASAP. SHe has perked up remakable well just being back on IV fluids and keeping hydrated. SHe is still in a lot of pain in her hip, back and head. She has 7 more radiation treatments on the braind and 3 or 4 left on her hip. I will keep posting as new development incur.

We need all the prayers you can send our way. Ask anyone and everyone you know to add her to their prayer lists. Thanks.

I also added pics of the kids. They can always make you smile!
