Wendi had a nice birthday and we appreciate all the well-wishers and
thoughtful people out there. Our
door was wonderfully heart-attacked!
It was a bummer that she was to start radiation on her birthday – kinda
puts a damper on the festivities.
The Bottom Line, though, is we did not start radiation last Thursday,
as planned. We went into Homburg
and they only did some kind of measurements. They explained that they weren’t real happy with ‘the plan’
they had come up with for where to radiate and they wanted more time. We’re not sure what all that means,
except a delay. Starting on a
Friday was not recommended, so we start tomorrow, Monday, November 17th
at 2pm.
We assumed that by now – two weeks post-chemo – Wendi would be feeling
like mountain climbing, but she’s still dragging a little bit. Much better than she felt a week ago
for sure, but not as great as we’d hoped.
It really does take time to kick all that junk out. She will come to all of church today
for the first time in quite a while.
It will be great to all be together today!
On a brief family note, we’re proud of Alex for making the JV
Basketball team for Ramstein High School.
There is no “C” team or Freshmen team, so it is pretty difficult to do
and many try. He is one of only
two Froshies, so way-to-go Alex!
Kayli is mostly registered for spring semester at USU and we are
looking forward to having her here for Christmas.
Happy Veteran's Day and Thanksgiving everyone.
