Out of the Hospital!

Mom got out of the hospital a couple days ago (she just reminded me that we didn't post that on the blog). She is home and resting once again, though I think she might secretly miss the hospital becasue she gets lots of uninterrupted sleep and is waited on hand and foot! We are waiting now until Monday, Feb. 8th when she will start the next round of treatments: Monday through Wednesday she will have outpatient chemo; then Thursday through Sunday she will be in the hospital having a concoction of drugs. She'll be out for two weeks and then she'll do that whole week over again. This schedule will continue through April we are told.

As long as the brain stays clear of cancer and the drugs do what they are supposed to (kill the cancer in her liver), we are hoping that by the end of April she will be cancer free and on her way to a healthy recooperation! I really can't remember what it was like for her to be totally cancer free which was way back in June. Please pray with us that this will be the case come April...I would love nothing more than to go on a spring walk with my mom followed by a drink on the sidewalk at Starbucks. It has been WAY too long since we've been able to do that together!

We continue to thank God for you and your love. A special thanks to my aunts Carol and Suzy who have provided a Sunday meal to us and grandpa the past few weeks. We are blessed to have such loving family and friends. And Norma, I ate way too many of your choc. chip cookies tonight!

ALL of you are wonderful cooks!

love, Molly
