status quo

Mom is doing really well. The visiting nurse was in the other day to take some blood. We are waiting to hear what mom's counts are. If her counts are good she will have another round of chemo in the begining of September. Her stamina is a lot better and is even walking without a cane around the house. She uses the cane when she is out and about for security and stability reasons.

She is staying active by sewing and knitting and has many projects in the works. She is quite the busy-bee.

Nothing much has changed medically and is taking one day at a time.

Until i know more...

Doing good

Mom is doing well, here at home. She had chemo on Friday and is recuperating. She feels really good. she will not really feel the effects of the chemo until later this week into next week. She went into the office yesterday to get a shot which boosts her white blood cell counts.

She is staying active and going out of the house on little adventures with dad and/or dad and I. The other day we went down to the mall- since her counts were good and she was in no danger of catching anything- and picked up a bridesmaids dress that i had altered and mom got some new shoes for a wedding in a couple weeks. She had fun and was able to be out amongst people.

Nothing much is going on. Just doing day to day things, relaxing, and she is enjoying sewing again. She is making little children's out fits. SO CUTE!

Thanks to all that continue to send their love and support. It is greatly appreciated. Thank you!

Until i know more...

Love,

Jess

Mom is home

Mom came home yesterday afternoon from the hospital. She is doing well but she now has a new task to do at home. She and Dad had to be trained on IV antibiotics. Now that she is home she has to have the antibiotics by IV. Things are going well.

She had a CAT scan yesterday and is scheduled for a PET scan on the 10th- these are just to find out how the tumors look in her body and to see if anything has changed. She is also scheduled for a Dr's visit on the 13th which is also supposed to be another Chemo day, but we will see what happens.

Her counts are still low and are growing everyday.

All and all things are going well, and i am just happy she is home again.

until i know more...

love jess
