Update and Baby news


I am feeling much better today. I made it through another chemo/neulasta. This time I had different drugs to try for the pain. I used a combination of Ultram, Tylenol and Valium starting Sunday. They really helped. Len even found an article on the web about trying Claritin to block the neulasta pain. He didn't find the article until Saturday night after I had gone to bed so I didn't start it until I was well into the pain. I think that it helped though. Saturday night the pain was almost unbearable but Sunday the pain wasn't as severe. I thank God for that. I am not sure if it was the Claritin or the combination of drugs I was experimenting with that made the difference.

Saturday we were informed of another grandbaby on the way. Robyn and Dustin are expecting baby number 2 - due December 26. What great news! Jason and Julie's baby is due November 2. This will make 5 grandchildren for us. We are truly blessed.
