CHEMO DAY

Dave met with Dr. Boehme today before chemo, and things are going well. Dave has actually gained 8 lbs.!!! The plan is continuing once a week chemo along with a new pill which is a new drug. I can't believe how good Dave looks; his coloring is great and he's not so pale. We are thankful for the improvement. I don't know what his plans are tomorrow, but I sure hope he mows the lawn!! I haven't been able to say that in 2 yrs., and boy does it feel good.

DOING GOOD

It's been a great weekend with Dave feeling good and constantly eating. I'm making more trips to the grocery store, which is a pain because Safeway is closed for remodel and we only have one other store and it's always packed!!! I think I'll buy a cow. Dave will drink a gallon of milk in 2 days. He's now making his own milkshakes, so I know he's feeling better. He will have chemo again on Tues., but is handling it well. As for me, I check in for "jury duty" in district court tomorrow. Just another thing to keep life interesting.
