An Update

My old trend of telling a story at the beginning of posts is quickly fading. There are so many little funny stories, some real potential nightmares, and some others to relate, but I find that I'm much more inclined to get straight to 'the tomatoes'.

Alison's back from the hospital. She was discharged last night, inspite of severe pain in her hips and legs (again), some remaining clottage, etc. The doctors have prescibed her three months of blood thinners to continue the fight against her two clots and prevent future ones from occuring.

She began another session of chemotherapy this morning, so 'Becky' is back attached to her hip in the superb 'fanny-pack' style we've grown accustomed to. Alison's already feeling the nausea, so she's sleeping as much as possible.

And for now, it's back in the wheel-chair again.

We know this road will have ups and downs. We're just in a valley right now again. I am fully aware and certainly grateful, for things could always be 'worse.' Amen says the congregation!

Thanks for the prayers, the cards, and every thought ya'll have for Alison's well-being.
