The last of the "Red Devil"

This is Julie blogging for Leslie.
Sorry I've been remiss. I hear some of you have been concerned because there have been no posts these last few days.
I'm happy to report Leslie is doing well. No nausea to speak of, but a lot of fatigue, which is a usual symptom of the chemo. She's mainly dealing with symptoms from the medication which stimulates white blood cell production, namely, aching bones. These symptoms should start to subside beginning tomorrow. Overall, the best she's felt after chemo so far!

Thank goodness this was the last of the "Red Devil!" The medication which will be used for the last four treatments comes with its own set of symptoms, but should be much less.

Thank you all (again)for your love and support.
It's awe-inspiring to see your love in action and will be remembered with gratitude.

I'm especially grateful to Tom for his steadfastness. He's a devoted husband and a good man. (Please wish him a happy 53rd birthday on Monday).

Posting on this blog

Figured how to let people blog. Just sign as anonymous when you go to publish your post. Put your name at the end of your post and I will know who it is from.
Some can still sign in as themselves but most need to do the anonymous trick.
Back to the old poison Koolaid on Wednesday. Prayers are appreciated!

Rainy Sunday Morning

Haven't blogged for a few days. Enjoying my time feeling better with higher white count before next chemo treatment this Wednesday. Julie is coming in Tuesday night to help until Sunday. Wendie will be flying in Monday evening for a few days. Very thankful for my sisters and brother.
My whole family will be down on the 30th for the "Race For The Cure". Looking forward to all being together.
