OGF to Visit

Mom has been getting a little better everyday.  She still is having some pain, but it is manageable with some pain meds and Tylenol.  She is eating and is gaining her strength back walking around the house.  She has even made herself something to eat at times!  That is a really big deal.   She saw her doctor today.  Her WBC is 2.8.  Please pray that this continues to raise.  He said it is close enough to the magic number (3) to not get the Neupogen shot.  Her potassium is now normal, so she no longer needs that supplement - one less thing to take! 

This weekend was one we have been looking forward to and talking about for a while.  Mom's friends, OGF (old girl friends - friends from high school - the gals she went to Hawaii with) are staying with her for the weekend.  Our family, on my dad's side, once a year goes to my Aunt Jan's camp, King Camp, by Lockhaven, PA.  This is that weekend.  I talked to Jeannie today while she was at my parent's house and I could hear chatting and giggling.  Perfect.  Just what the doctor ordered!

Please pray that this weekend is healing for us all!  My dad needs to get lots of rest.  Please pray that the laughter and memories made w/ the OGF can also be a different kind of healing for my mom.  We can all use some fresh air to the situation.
