Another Chemo Wednesday.........

Wednesday cometh! I'll take my PDA to the chemo room tomorrow, if you think about it, shoot up a prayer and send an e mail (sherilamar@gmail.com), it's fun to read them as the chemo drips in. I know I make it sound exciting...... but not so much.

Sheri is a stud! Cancer picked the wrong girl to fight with! She has been tough to keep down. My two commands to her are: "eat" and "sleep", that's her job right now. We pray the chemo is working! The doctors so far seem positive. We meet with Sheri's Oncologist tomorrow, Dr. Malhi. She is very humble, and willing to ask others for opinions, but confident in Sheri's treatment. We really like her for that. Tomorrow will be our first appointment with her since we started chemo. Things seem to be settling in a bit more. Sheri met with her boss today about going back to school after Christmas break. She's really looking forward to seeing her kids again, as they are her! Pray for her energy levels....so far so good.

Wednesday is a friend of ours funeral; Don Gibbs. Don fought a long hard battle with heart attacks, and cancer. A fight well fought my friend. Don was always good for a funny story and his patented wit and smile, and a cup of coffee. He always came in the lumber yard, bought a few things, told a story or four or five, and had a slug of our famous (not really, but he never complained) coffee, and left a smile on our faces. We will miss him. We're sorry we can't attend his service, but we have a date with the chemo chair. I think Don would understand, there's a fight to be fought!!!!

Hey guys! I just wanted to let you know that since Juliana has been subbing up at the school we have a new understanding of how much you want to get back to "your" kids. Juliana loves getting to go up there and help out, but even more so loves to hang with the kids. I hope everything works out for you to be able to get back! Keep on keepin' on! -Kev
