Mark and I went to my checkup with my oncologist yesterday, and everything is going fairly well with my chemotherapy. I’ve had a few adverse side effects from the drugs, but I’m on a 14-day break from the strongest one starting yesterday. This should help reduce the side effects and give my body a much needed break. It might sound trivial, but my biggest physical problems are nauseau and painful splits in the end of my fingers.
Our girls continue to be struggling with their health…especially Shelby. She has bronchitis and cannot seem to get over it. I spent the night on the couch with her because she slept in a chair last night. Please pray for her health and this awful cough. Savannah has come home sick from school a couple of times, but I suspect she’s working the system at school to see what sympathy she can get too.
We may not be moving this weekend as planned. A very dear friend from our church passed away last night, and the funeral may be Saturday. Being with their family and our church is more important than moving, plus many of our “movers” will be at the same funeral. We are checking to see if we can reschedule the move for Nov. 17, but we haven’t confirmed these plans yet.
I’m not sure what to do with the girls’ school situation given this new move date. We’ve had them prepared to start on Monday (Nov. 12), and we may still try to accomplish this. We are very blessed that a good friend, Tamara, has a Lancaster bus route that goes right by the hardware store every morning. She’s offered to pick up the girls, which will be great! Not only do they get to spend more time with their dad in the morning, but they’ll have the best bus driver, too.
Thanks for your prayers and support during this stressful time. We love you.
Sandy
Sandy,
The girls are welcome to come to our house after school and Jessica would be glad to watch them until someone can pick them up or we can bring to Markle to the store.
We would be glad to assist in any way we can.
Love,
Rhonda
