Quiet Saturday

Mom has been doing ok this week. She's been able to stay home and relax in the comfort of her own bed. She is slow to get around and would prefer to stay in bed all day, but knows the only way to get any better is to get up and move around once in a while. She's tried harder to do that this week even though it's usually a chore. She's switched over to all oral medicine now and her stomach has felt a little bit better. She still doesn't have a desire to eat much but has to take a few bites when she takes her medicine.

I think her attitude has improved some from last week. She's choosing every day to put in all the effort she can to get better and to interact with us. It's good to see her showing us she wants to feel better.  

There is no bone marrow biopsy scheduled at this time. Dr Jessica still believes there is cancer present but it has not shown up in mom's blood work yet. Jessica thinks it's there because of how slow mom's counts are coming back up since chemo.  There's nothing they can do for her at this time other than treat the symptoms she has.

We continue to support her every steps of the way and pray for a miracle to happen. Thanks for all the prayers, notes, meals, and visits.
