Jan 27th

Hi All,

I meant to write last night, but I was feeling tired. I have been really stressed thinking about Portland next week and working, so I am a little wore out mentally and physically. Jess didn't get out of the hospital until 830 on Monday night. It takes a long time to get blood. She had chemo first and then received two units of blood. They ended up staying in Medford for the night. She was tired by the time they got done; but at least she didn't have any reaction to the IV chemo. Now they know for sure that it was the three shot PEG chemo that gave her problems. They are going to give it to her ealy on Monday, but also give her benadryl through her IV and steroids to help out with any reaction. We have decided to go up to Portland on Monday. We started to think that if she has a reaction that night, like last time, or something goes wrong we would have to go back to Medford. This way we will already be in Portland with her main doctor. That will put us in Portland Friday evening through Friday morning. It is going to be a long week. Well I am off for the night. Talk to you all tomorrow. Please put her in your prayers.

Love, Cindi

  1. My fundraiser ends in a couple of days, and it has been a good experience to see people pull together and give some money to help you out. The check will be sent to your special bank account by mid Feb. As always, I wish you the best.

    Love,

  2. Hi Cindi,
    Try and rest up as much as you can for this coming week, okay? Remember that all of us are praying for you guys and hope that your daughter gets through all this quickly. I believe it's all just a matter of time before she's completely healed and back to her old self again! Attitude and faith play a huge part in all of this! =) You guys hang in there and thank you so much for posting and keeping us in the loop. I wish I could wave a magic wand for you and make all things better for everyone! Instead, I'll just continue praying!
    Love, warm hugs, and prayers to all,
    Kimberley, Richard, and Morgan
