Wednesday isn't for Wussies!

So I started to feel happy that we were on a good roll of Devree not vomitting for 9 straight days until this morning she is making up for it. She was feeling pretty well yesterday when we came home from the hospital. She hasn't been napping and finished her book and watched some TV. Her rancid cream corn smell from the stem cells didn't seem to bother her either. As soon as she got up this morning she told me she thought she had the flu because of both ends having problems. I told her "No that is just the chemo." She is just trying to relax in her bed and listen to her ipod and try to get through the nausea. She threw up some of her nausea meds, and now doesn't want to try again or take a bath.

Then I have no network on my phone, right here in the Target House where I usually have a good connection, there is nothing. We don't go to the hospital till 3pm to get some GCSF, but I was so happy to see that her ANC had not dropped like last time when we left the hospital. I thought this was going to be an easier time. I guess I never should think "Hey we are over this." At least I have time to do some laundry today and maybe go to the library and find some good books for Devree and possibly me.

Here is my quote today. This is by Elder Rafael E. Pino. "If we live our lives in accordance with teachings of the Savior, we will surely find the peace and consolation that only God can give.

NO! I'm so sorry the V word is back in your vocabulary. Just when you let your guard down it always seems to work that way. I'm still thinking about you guys all the time, and missing you terribly.

Yuck, poor Devree! There are few things worse than V-ing and the other, all at the same time! I'm just glad that those other worse things aren't accompanying her this time around. She's out of the hospital!

We have been having awesome thunderstorms and rain in the afternoon! It's humid here, can you believe it? It is a little like Hawaii with a constant mist around the mountains. We haven't come close to approaching the greenness of Hawaii, but it is looking kind of pretty here!

You are always in our thoughts and prayers. Have a better day!
