There is something important that I haven't mentioned earlier since there have been so many things going on. Amy Taylor, whose Caring Bridge site I have been reading since last summer, passed away on Dec. 27th. She courageously fought her disease till the very end. Amy leaves behind a husband and two small children. Keep them in your prayers as they grieve their loss and work on the journey to a new "normal."
John is back in the hospital getting his abdomen tapped and I believe getting something inserted for future tapping that can be done where he lives. He was admitted yesterday afternoon and more than likely will be released tomorrow. When his stomach fills up with fluid, he becomes very uncomfortable, as you can imagine. His platelets are up, which is good. They are still dangerously low, but are now higher than they've been in quite some time. John was prescribed Lunesta and has been sleeping much better, thank God. Thank you for your prayers!
I had my mammogram last week. Everything looks good, although the radiologist was very thorough and requested additional images and an ultrasound. This made me a little nervous, but thank you, God, again for the all clear report! Next mammogram is in 6 months.
I'm still planning a trip home and currently working out the details. The weather has been horrible in Pennsylvania and beautiful here. I must be nuts!
