A Very Brief Update

Not much new to report today. The first few days after chemo Susan’s pretty wiped.


She did, however, receive a bouquet of flower from her coworkers. It was very touching that they did that for her. It brightened up her day, and made her feel connected to her workplace and those she worked with.


Velma noted that Susan’s “tick arm” was smaller. Her fingers were more apparent and thinner than before. But they were more so when I got out of the shower later than evening to sit down to jot down the blog; her fingers seemed more pronounced. She can even move her arm better. I’m looking forward to see what it’ll look like tomorrow.


Tomorrow Susan’s expecting a call from Dr. Shree tomorrow about her sodium and potassium levels. Hopefully her fluid restrictions will be a thing of the past and she can chug down a whole glass of water if she wanted to. Pray that her levels are good.


Thank you everyone for all of your prayers and good thoughts. Please keep them up. They’re working.


Until tomorrow….

So glad the tick arm is getting smaller and you can move it better. We continue to pray for His healing touch to move through out your body Sue. Hope you are able to drink fluids as you wish because your sodium and potassium levels are where they need to be. Thanks for the blog Ray. Happy Fri. and greetings to everyone. We are praying that the chemo is eradicating the cancer. Keep up the great attitude Sue.
