I haven’t forgotten about you all, I just haven’t had the lust to write about much of anything lately. I did get a chance to see my mother yesterday and even though she is considerably better than last time I visited with her, she is extraordinarily weak and a little pessimistic about this entire outcome. She just finished up her second round of chemotherapy, albeit a weaker dose of chemotherapy than her previous one. So far she doesn’t seem to be reacting too badly, except for the extraordinary fatigue. Her inability to walk very well is still one of the most prevalent issues. Thankfully I had a shower/toilet chair sitting in my garage which I was able to give her. Almost every time I see her she tells me how much of a life saver that thing has been. We will keep praying and keeping everyone updated.
I really wanted to write about more, but my abdominal binder, which helps hold my diaphragm in tight and facilitates my ability to breathe real well, not to mention raises my blood pressure so I can function decently, just isn’t positioned correctly and I am having difficulty dictating effectively. So, I’m going to call it quits on the computer tonight with plans of being here tomorrow.
Take care and I can’t wait to see what’s going on in all of your lives.

Taking time to recharge your mind, body, and spirit can help you feel better and can certainly help keep you in a positive frame of mind to help and see your mother through her days as well. Take care.
