[TriciaK]

Your replies brought tears to my eyes and I feel so encouraged by your thoughts and suggestions. I am not feeling much better, still incredibly weak, but have hopes that this coming week we can find some answers from the oncologist. Just being able to reach out to each other means so much, and I treasure all you have written, the encouragements as well as timely suggestions. It is good to know there are still options available to us in this battle. I am so blessed to have a wonderful husband and a very large family. I have to get better and stay around, as most of our 32 grandchildren are now married and having children. We have 36 greats now, with 7 more due by summer of this year. I have to stay around to meet them all! (You may remember we put two families together 30 years ago). I have been blessed in so many ways, and your friendships mean so much. I will let you know what transpires with the chemo. Thank you again, and God bless you. Hugs, TriciaK
