Round 12 on hold

Well, I guess some days are better than others. Jessica could not get a chemo treatment yesterday because her platelet count was too low. On a good note she is going to take a “chemo break” for a few weeks; on the down side, she went to the dentist for a cleaning last week and was told she has two impacted wisdom teeth that need to come out. One is causing an infection, something she needs avoid at all costs. So… at this point the game plan is for her to have oral surgery next week to them taken out.

God bless her though, she looks as beautiful as ever and is in great spirits. We had an absolutely wonderful Thanksgiving. Shannon, her sister, came home and we went out for a wonderful Thanksgiving feast. I made a turkey breast, and sides the day before so also had the traditional holiday leftovers to pick at over the weekend. The visit with her sister was great. They had a manicure, pedicure and tea at a spa and we all had a nice lunch out before she left. Shannon beat the pants off of both of us at Dominoes but even with the tiles stacked against her she looks and feels great!

  4. Glad to hear that you had a great time with your sis. Sorry to hear about the wisdom teeth. Its best to get those babies out of there. I had all four of mine cut out. I was down for a couple of days, but its cake compared to everything you have overcome. We are thinking of you and we love you!
