Most healthy patient here!

Mom was finally able to get her chemotherapy because all her levels are good. She checked into huntsman's yesterday and they started chemo at 11pm. She will get 4 treatments every 12 hours. Then she gets to go home.

The only side effect is that her ears are falling off, but that's because I have talked them off. No chemo side effects! She feels great. The doctor called her the most heathy here. The one thing they watch closely is her blood pressure it is always very low.

She is excited that her cute honey is coming up for a sleepover and to watch the fireworks with her over the whole Salt Lake Valley. 

We have been told she is the favorite patient here. We agree!

Come on T-cells

After Lake Powell mom was supposed to check in for her 48hour chemo however she has not been able to because her labs came back saying that her various levels were not good. Couple of weeks later her white blood count is still too low. But on the up side she is improving and is expected to go in next Thursday. She told them that they are messing up her schedule. 

She is excited to have her brother Alan come and visit from Florida. She said "I'm not dying you don't have to come." But I think he knows just when he is needed and we are all happy he is coming. 

Us kids have had the opportunity to run into and meet some of the wonderful friends my parents made while up at camp. We ran into a couple at Market Street, just last night. We were able to spend a couple of days in Lake Powell with the Neiderhouser's getting to know them-such wonderful people. We are thankful for your love and support.
