We have to go back to the Cancer Centre today for blood work and examination with Dr. V. Then depending on whether there is a bed and whether John is fit to go....he will be readmitted for round two of the D PACE chemical treatment. Only another three to four weeks to endure! I was talking to Lynn (our cancer connection multiple myeloma survivor who we may actually meet as she has an appointment herself today ) She had to go through four of those D PACE treatments. I don't know how she did that! She is an inspiration to us. Anyway...I do hope that he gets in today because there is no point in putting off the inevitable. I do hate it too but I'm sure it is not as hard on me as it is on John. The last ten days were so nice. It is nice to get up in the morning and know that I don't have to go anywhere but can just go about my business or do nothing at all. Its nice to have John at home... have his company right here... and say good night here...and say good morning here...also I'm getting fat sitting around the hospital. I think that I should try to discipline myself and go for a long walk in the afternoon when John takes a nap. Wish me luck on that one! I will try to post and let you know how it went today...so... later!

We will pray that the next round of treatments goes well for both of you. As for the getting fat thing, I can relate. I sit all day at school and then don't go for walks after school because I get so busy with the girls and house and trying to fit in the Beach Hut every now and then. So, now I have to go on a diet.
We hope all will go well the the second round of treatments. Hopefully John can tolerate it as well this time, as the first time. I hope you get to meet the cancer patient you mentioned. I am sure it would be nice to be able to talk to someone who has some experience with the disease.
Mom Braun, I didn't know you were friends with someone who's gone through this already... that's encouraging! It's so beautiful outside this week. You go on that walk, girl and pump it! Revel in the beauty of fall, and spend some time in praise and prayer to God. He will refresh you... His daughter.
