Nate's 2 Year Pictures

Here's one of the pictures from Nate's 2-year "photo shoot." The rest are available on Yahoo! Photos, so check out the link if you like. I'll try to get more photos up from his birthday party soon.

TGIF

Mom didn't have chemo at all this week because she was feeling so crappy. She is scheduled next week for chemo. Mom was nauseated this week but the heat had some to do with it. She is planning to go to the doo-dah parade this evening so she must be feeling a bit better.

Chemo a no go

Mom is not feeling so good today. She was supposed to have chemo but she will be having it tomorrow instead. I am not sure if it is heat, chemo or both but it sucks no matter what it is. Her nausea pills aren't working so good, she couldn't keep toast down today unfortunately.

A Wooha

Mom is doing great this time with the 2 chemo treatment. The new pill for nausea is definitely working super good!! She is a bit achy from the white blood cell shot but that is better than nausea. We have our new kitchen floor and new bushes going infront of the trailer, we're getting spiffy. The airconditioner is teetering on death i think though.

Nate's 2

Well Nate turned 2 on Sunday - his big birthday party was on Saturday - it was a beautiful day. Hot - and not much shade- but good anyhow. He had a great time and was just so excited to open up every single gift. The first gift he saw - sippy cups with Trains on them - you'd think they were gold. and it just continued from there - it was great. He even did good at his 2 year check up - no shots needed. Just a blood test - all is well. Just a slightly swollen lymph node - but the doctor checked it out and no problems (of course - my mind goes to cancer after mom)- so that was a huge relief.

He even had money to go shopping at Toy's R Us (picture in the car) - like we'll ever get him one of those cars - we keep telling him - no way kid. Not even Nonnie or Papa will get one of those (I think I'd shoot them if they did).

Other than that - we had pictures taken yesterday - had issues with anything after 3 shots - so pacifier was in most. But we were able to get a picture with 4 generations, me, Nate, dad and Grandma. It will be nice.

Hope everyone is enjoying the summer
love,
Gail

E-mail-A-Friend: New organ arrives at Ilion Presbyterian Church

Story:
New organ arrives at Ilion Presbyterian Church

ILION - After six years of painstaking planning, the Ilion Presbyterian Church is finally on the verge of having a new organ.

The Ilion Presbyterian Church, on Second Street, has been using the same organ since 1913. With age and avid use, that instrument slowly deteriorated until, as the Rev. Victor McKusick said, it became unusable.

Good news (finally)

I heard from Jen earlier and it sounds like the trip to see the colonoscopy doctor was a waste of time. they had NO bad news at all - just wanted to tell her again - it all looked alright. So that is good news.

Also - Ron should be getting out of the rehab center today and returning home - yeah!

More updates

Not sure if there are other posts - but just wanted to give a few of my own.

1 - Liz should be coming home today - and will have an appointment about the colonoscopy results tomorrow and Chemo again on Thursday. She'll have plenty of visitors this weekend, Craig will be driving out, and I think both uncles and families are also planning some trips there as well. So this is good. We just want her to be home and not feel sick.

2. Ron is FINALLY getting out of rehab/hospital tomorrow (knock on wood). He's been in one of the two since April 21st! NOT fun at all. He's ready to go home. Its going to be some changes but they are in hope to conserve his energy and not run our of breath. So that is good.

3. We finally got our second kitten - Piper. She is not the original one we wanted, he had too many health issues. So now we have Chloe and Piper - they are doing well and finally getting along. Its fun to watch them - and its so true - get two cats. They totally chase each other around so that they are tired by night time and sleep all night long. Yeah.

Hopefully we'll have more news on Liz tomorrow -
Gail

Well, I think almost everyone knows this but here it goes anyway. Upper right lung is getting good air but lower right lung is partially collapsed with fluid surrounding it. The adrenal gland mass grew slightly 1/4 inch, which means chemo didn't really work so well the first round. The radiation helped with the lung though. Mom is on a new chemo which is 4 hours one week then 1 hour the next week with the following week off. This will be her new schedule to the next scan I guess. Mom is not tolerating the chemo very well. Yesterday she ate 2 crackers and barely kept them down.When we returned to the chemo suite for her shot they gave her medicine that was supposed to be better than what she had for nausea but it doesn't seem to be working yet. She is pretty tired and weak so if you call please keep that in mind.

Wednesday June 7

A bit of good news. Mom just got her new wig and it looks really good. Short and sassy! I will try to get a pic on here so everyone can see her new summer hairdo. She also got a graduation certificate from radiation which is over for now. Chemo will continue for 6 mos to a year depending on what the doc thinks.
