1/24/2011 update

No real news to report.  Jill felt good this weekend and was able to spend some time with her family.  Her brother’s family was in from Ohio.  Our Nephew was baptized Sunday morning as well.  We received both our bi-weekly Goodies for Golightlys and a rather large home made pizza dinner this weekend.  And our daughter’s cleaned up the house last night!!! 

Jill should continue to feel decent until her Chemo this Thursday, her first at the Breast Center at St.V’s.  That should be her last treatment of the first protocol (4th of 4).  2 Weeks after that, she will start her second protocol which is also scheduled to be 4 weeks.  We are of course very curious as to if this second treatment will have more or less side effects.  The only thing we know is that it takes 6 hours.  That means with the other stuff (check in, meet with Oncologist, exam, etc) that this will realistically be an 8 hour day for Jill.  Ugh.  But we keep reminding ourselves to try to live in the moment and just deal with today . . . and not worry about something 3 weeks away.

Until next post . . .

  2. Hi Greg, I work with Joyce Hamilton. I just wanted you to know that I'll be at the Breast Care Center for treatment this Thursday as well, 945a. I would love to meet you both and give Jill a hug.

  3. You're right; don't worry about 3 weeks from now. Let me know if I can do anything. That's what retirement is for:-) Good to see you this weekend. Blessings dear heart and lots of love, Judy
