Hi All,

Sorry that I haven't been on lately. I have been so sick and just trying to keep up with things at home and work. Busy busy! Jess has been about the same. Some days are better than others. She got her picc lines cleaned yesterday in Klamath. Today she had a big day of chemo. The doctor said that her blood results were about the same as last time, so that is okay. She had 2 IV chemos, which went well...but then she had to wait almost two hours before they got to her spinal. It was scheduled at one, so she and Jon were not very happy. The doctor wanted to put it in a lower spot, somewhere different, but it is deeper so she had to be numbed more and those are the shots that hurt her the most. She said that they hurt but after that she just felt pressure when he put the chemo in. This was the doctor that she likes though; so she was happy with that. They ate lunch over there and then they were home and she was on the couch by five. I was glad that she was resting already and she said that she was drinking good. I would imagine that around Saturday she will be feeling really tired. That seems to be about the time this stuff hits her. Please keep her in your prayers. I know it gets hard when everyone is busy. I do believe that they all help. Thanks so much!! Love to all, Cindi

PS They are doing a schooling horse show and silent auction for Jess at Spring Lake Stables on March 27th. Should be a lot of fun and I know that they are getting lots of cool stuff. I f you know of anyone who wants to donate anything please let Maureen Thomas know. Thanks!
