Update! and Vegas Baby!

Mom is doing really well with her post surgery healing. She will go to the kidney doctor tomorrow for her final checkup. She received her first round of chemo pills today and will begin taking them tomorrow. These pills do not have "typical" chemo reaction. She will not lose her hair but will experience fatigue. The oncologist said she should be able to tell with just the first round that these are working and will help with her breathing. Her bronchial tubes are being blocked by the masses right now. Not a complete block, but enough it affects her breathing. She will be on the pills for 4 weeks then off for 2 weeks.

Mom leaves for Vegas on Thursday. Rach and I hope she does not come back married to Elvis! She is going with her "Bunch" friends from high school and will return on Monday. So glad she feels up to it and can enjoy this time with her friends!

Thanks for all the prayers!

Jo
