Sunny Sunday!

Luke to the rescue at the apple store! Mom bought a new iPhone and it was so helpful to have Luke here to sync all her old data to the new phone! The sales gal had never seen such a "OLD"iPhone and couldn't get over actually seeing such an OLD iPhone!
Crazy YUMMY dinner 2 nights in a row!

Snuggle and chat time on Gma's bed!

Palapa time!

A great sunny afternoon to hang out in the Palapa and chat!

Luke & Gma walking in downtown SB

Today was the MOST active Mom has been in MONTHS! She enjoyed her outing with 2 of her darling grandsons!


Mom had good news this week from her blood tests. Her red blood cells were higher (in a good way) than they have been in months. She credits this to the 'blood builder' she has been taking ( THANK YOU SYDNEY!) and she is feeling better. She is still fatigued but today she was able to go downtown and walk around a bit with Luke and Jack while Sara & Lucy went shopping! It has been a wonderful weekend with (some of) our KC family here! It's been FUN and cozy!

1 more week to go

Today Mom had chemo. Next Wednesday is her last chemo treatment (this kind of chemo) and then if all goes as plans she will take a break for a few weeks, get a scan and then start on a milder chemo (maybe a pill form).

Funny

At Chemo last Wednesday, they had to draw blood from Mom's port (to test her for the bracha gene) and the blood was not flowing easily from the port so the nurse was asking Mom to cough to make the blood flow into the vile. I said "Albert Pujols, tattoos, Jane and I getting tattoos all over our arms" and boom her blood really started to pump and filled up the vile!

HA! a little chemo/blood drawing humor for you - HA- you are welcome!
