This past week was pretty rough. Mike did not have too many moments when he was feeling well. He was actually pretty sick most of the week. The doctor said it is from the additional chemo he recieved last Friday (the 17th). Yesterday he was throwing up at clinic from being so nauceous. :( His platelets were up to 185 (woohoo) but his plasma has been very low. He had to receive 4 bags of plasma Friday (24th) and 4 bags yesterday. The doctor said that is very normal, but he wants to keep an eye on him throughout this week, so he will have to go back on Wednesday and again on Friday. He is scheduled for his port-cath surgery next monday (3rd).

I am planning to leave Tuesday night with the kids to drive back to FL and fly Mike down on Wednesday with his mom. She will be staying with us for a couple weeks to help us get settled (thank God - cause I am going to need it!). The kids go back to school on the 17th so I will be pushing it a little to get them ready. I am trying not to panic. All of this also depends on how my doctor appointment goes tomorrow and how I feel next week. I hurt my back playing football in the rain on Sunday and I have been having a really hard time getting around. Hopefully I will be ok to make the drive by Tuesday.

Thanks to everyone for the continued support and prayers! Love you all!
