Columbus Day Weekend

This past week was Round II, Week III.  For the most part Jenny is off the BEACOPP chemo medications during week III.  This was expecting to be a very “up” week for her.  Though not a bad week, she did not have a great week.  Some aches and pains along with a few poor nights of sleep put a damper on things.

I was gone from Wednesday morning (10/06/10) till Sunday evening (10/10/10).  When I got in  I found Jenny ensconced on the couch, not looking very happy.  But on the up side, Katie was home from school for the long holiday weekend.  Jenny enjoyed having both of her children at home.

Tomorrow jenny starts Round III of her BEACOPP treatment.  As you can imagine, she is not looking forward to it.  Alan will be taking Jenny into MSK.  I will be taking Katie up into Connecticut to pick up her car.  I want to be sure that it was put back together to my satisfaction.

This has been and continues to be a long, tiring battle.  The support that Jen and I receive is a great source of strength to us. It helps to rally us as a family to do whatever is needed to secure a decisive victory! 

To quote someone “Life may not be the party we hoped for, but while we are here we might as well dance.”
