Change

My latest results are in. There is a slight increase in some areas (tumor size). Isn't that a bummer.I'm going to stay on my current chemo. I have been on this since September. However the schedule is going to changer. Instead of going every two weeks with one week off I'm going to go every two weeks with two weeks off. Just to give me some more off time between treatments.

The doctor summed it up like a baseball game...imagine that. But he said you want to leave the pitcher in as long as you can . And then when needed to go to the bull pen...which is new chemo drug. So for now we are going to keep on the same drug even though we may have loaded the bases or given up a few runs. We are still winning.

My Coumadin levels are therapeutic now so I only have to go to the lab once a week instead of 2 or 3 times. I'm feeling better now that I don't have any clots.

The kids are busy. Rachel just made her Confirmation. She is running track for her middle school. Emily is doing water polo clinics for a few weeks and James is finishing up with basketball this weekend. Paul is done teaching his night class the first week of May.

We have a niece graduating from MSU in May and a nephew graduating from Lowell High School. We will have a few graduation parties to go to this year with extended family and friends also. And soon we will be celebrating Rachel's birthday and Mom and Dad's 50th wedding Anniversary.

Hope that nice warm air returns soon.
Peace to you all
Thanks for all you do
