Day 71, still going well! We are encouraged to see the rising blood counts even though its very slow, ups and downs. We go weekly to the cancer clinic and VON nurses come to the house a few times a week to do meds by IV. I have been struggling with nausea more than we expected, some days it is difficult to get enough food and drink in, then there will be several good days in a row. It can be discouraging at times, but this is just all part of it. The doctor reminded us this is a marathon, not a sprint, so we just need to press on. We are so thankful that God has answered prayer and there have been no serious setbacks so far and pray that this will continue. I am able to do things around the house and have Alana to keep me company. She still visits Auntie Brenda's 2 days a week while we have appointments and catch up on rest. I need to stay indoors most of the day, which is hard for her, but I have been strictly warned about any sun exposure as I am very vulnerable to skin
