Hello! So I've had two pretty good days. No nausea yet but my shingles are causing some pain. I'm also getting some sort of rash in several places on my body. We're not sure if that is a good thing or bad thing because at this point if the donor's cells attack my cells it would help fight the leukemia. In other words, graft versus host disease might not be a bad thing anymore. We're still hoping that I get out of the hospital Saturday after my chemo treatment.

From what I hear I think moving is going okay. Michael is worried that everything won't fit in the U-haul but we have the master packer on the job (my dad). We'll see how that goes tomorrow. We are so thankful for all the help with this big job.

As always I hope you all are having a good week and am so thankful for each of you!
Amy

  3. Well, I'm home after a few days in sunny FL, and what a change in temp. We actually went to the beach Wed., 84º and waded in the ocean, when we got to Roanoke it was 30º and windy. Br-r-r. What a nice vacation, and Gladys did just fine on her first flight, in fact better than I did with my ear pain.
    You are now on the prayer list at the Mt. Dora, FL Church of Christ. We need every prayer we can get.
    So glad you have been doing well with the chemo, now if they can just get those shingles to behave themselves. You hang in there, you are doing great. Hugs to you and your mom. Love you bunches. Grandma
