Vicki got off to a rough start this morning. She was nauseous, and in quite a bit of pain from a bout of diverticulitis that seems to have come on (like she really needed something else on top of the leukemia). However, they've got her on a strong antibiotic and pain meds for the diverticulitis and she's a lot more comfortable. She's now about half way through her 7-days of chemo; they'll hang the last 24-hour chemo bag early Sunday afternoon and when that's gone she'll recuperate for about two weeks in the hospital.
Jack is looking better every day and is cognizant of his limitations. Of course, that doesn't stop Vicki from ordering him around. If it gets to be too much, he just retires to his cot by the window to rest. Vicki is bound and determined to have her head shaved before her hair starts falling out which they figure will happen on Monday. Monday is also the day that Jack has his first post-op visit with his cardiologist. I expect he'll get a good report.
Keep them both in your hearts and prayers!
