July 7
No chemo this week. Will start three more weeks next Wednesday. After that, another CT scan to see what is going on. Fingers crossed, prayers said that the cancer remains "contained" and shrinking. Continuing to get stronger. Had a Dr. appointment yesterday to draw blood. Went fairly well. My mom was told that she could start decreasing her "dependence" on the oxygen--continually turning down that dial (currently at a 2, when in ICU was all the way up to 13--daily miracles!) and getting rid of it all together--YEAH! Must be making some progress with the lungs. Tomorrow she has a pre-op appointment. She is getting a "chemo port" implanted on Monday--out patient surgery. Getting stronger day by day. Thank you for your prayers and support--they are helping more than you'll ever know!

Kandace, I have always been proud when you introduce me to others as your little brother. Since you got married and you last name changed a lot of people we both know have not linked us as family. Your courage has always inspired me. You are strong, and I will always be in your corner! I truly am blessed to be your younger brother. You occupy my daily thoughts and prayers.
ReplyDeleteI love you
Hi Kandace (sorry I've been spelling your name with a "C" instead of a "K"). It's amazing to see the wonderful progress you've made! Keep on fighting girl for those darling grandkids and all the many many people who love you. Thanks so much to Natalie for keeping us all up-dated. We love you, Pete and Kathy
