Home, Week 12

Mom has had to get hydration every day this week, plus shots to get her white counts up, something to get her red count up, and platelets as well... it really was too early for her to start chemo, but the cancer wasn't going to wait for her to get strong enough to really fight it, so the treatment is kicking her butt. She's still in good spirits, just sleeping a lot.

I got my first CA-125 screening done, and the results came back. I'm at a 9, so I'm Mom's goal. =)

John and I moved into the house today, and put the RV in storage for a few weeks. We'll still be able to go to FL to pack up my apartment, but it'll be an even shorter trip now, just two to three weeks, and the doctor wants him back closer to the two week mark. A learning lesson for you, don't run in flip flops, ankles get shattered that way.

We have to get the house put back together from the tenting we had done... our neighbors were nice enough to house our food and plants for the week. It will be a good opportunity to go through the things we do have and see what needs to go.

Relay for Life is tomorrow. We're signed up in Dublin, and I'm just picturing the three of us (and John's dog) getting in there... Mom in her wheelchair, me pushing her, John in his wheelchair, pushing himself, and Dudley (John's dog) leading the pack. Makes me laugh just thinking about it. =)

I think that covers things for now. Mom has shots both days this weekend to work on her white count, and hydration on Monday, so we'll see how things are from there. Wish us luck, and keep us in your prayers. =)
