keep up your spirit. how long is the nausea etc. going to last? we had a great time with Braelyn and Carissa and Rob. she had us laughing constantly. I was coughing into my hand and she watched and then did the same thing. funny thing is when she really coughed, she covered her mouth. then she was watching daddy rubbing his forehead and started doing that too. the best thing is when she played peek boo. she covered her ears instead of her eyes. she loved the pool and the beach.

did Breda give you your shot today? hope each day gets easier we love you,

 Side effects can last for 2 weeks, then the next round and it starts over.  It’s just uncomfortable – woke up this morning nauseous, achy, bones hurting…it’s not fun, but as Aunt Agnes says – if it’s gonna save your life.

Breda came to give me the shot today & showed Chris in case she can’t make it up.  No biggee, but it gives you a shot of bacteria to promote white blood cells, so that means your bone marrow is tapped to produce them so you hurt lots in your bones.  Hasn’t been fun.
