Sorry I'm not as quick to post as Andy. I am not a blogger that has the need to write everyday if there is nothing to report. Yesterday, Andy stayed home and took plenty of benadryll. We talked to our oncology nurse, Stephanie, explained the weekend and how Andy was feeling. She said that Andy was the second one that weekend to have this reaction to the contrast. She explained that next CT scan they will do some aggressive therapy prior to the scan. That scan is scheduled for around the end of July. Andy did go to work today. He is feeling tired and is worried that the weekend has set his recovery back a little. With time so short now before he goes back into Huntsman for treatment, we are all a bit on edge. So please be patient with us if we come off as cranky. We don't really want to see that our 4week break is almost to an end. It was nice feeling like we were almost normal again. Yet, once the word is given that cancer is in your life, you are never quite normal anymore. Normal for us now is treatment dates, CTscans, calls to Dr.'s, and hoping that all this will pay off with good news of remission. Of course, that information will not be known untill all the treatments are finished. We remind ourselves of the blessings that we have already recieved by so many wonderful people. We are extremely thankful for you and your support and love. I feel as though those words are minimal to the gratitude we have for each of you. Thank you over and over again.
