Great Dr's Visit

I'm the guest blogger today and I'm two days behind. So let me catch up. K flew in on Sunday morning and it was a very quite day. A, K and L just enjoyed the quite time together. M called to check on everyone and to see if K had a good flight into Atlanta.

L's pain level was maybe around a 3 at best. He only had to take 1 percocet on the q4. This is a great thing because that means his pain is getting less and less. Still having pain when the sun goes down.

L and K went to see Dr. T on Monday and he had good news. L's blood count is up and that means that the chemo is working. The blood count up means it is working on his anemia and working on his bone marrow. L is looking so much better and he is feeling so much better too.

L and K went to the Ross department store to buy pants and shirts for L because all of his current clothes have become to large and are falling off of him. No just joking he uses a belt.

We got three pair of pants and four shirts but we had to take back one pair of the pants and two shirts. The reason the items are being returned ; one pair of pants that are to short and the two shirts that are to expensive. The new clothes do look good on him. Will take pictures on Friday when we go back out to the doctor.

Tuesday cousin B came in from Kalamazoo, Mich. to spend time with L and K. Cousin B is a RN and one of the best people in the world. She is really a sweet heart. She was one of the first people L talked to about his disease. Cousin B went through some of the same treatments when she was fighting the Big C. "SHE WON" now C free for 9 years.

Oh all most forgot here are a pictures of:

That bring us up to today Wednesday 10/07/2009

Today was another good day. L had a good night slept most of night woke at 3am and took sleeping pill and pain pills. He was up early but not to early. L had PT with Ms T and she took him outside to walk down the block. He did a good job and Ms. T would like L to take longer walks like in a mall. 'Malls now that is my cup of tea' so lets walk in the mall and shop in the mall heheheheheeeeeeeeeeee :)'

L is looking so much better and he seems to be getting stronger. What L needs to do now is to make sure he put a nap in his schedule each day. Tonight after 'home boy' left L was really tried and ready to go to bed. The picture here is L taking his 8 p meds. He left to go to bed and left instruction to make sure he was awaken at 10:30p to get his sleeping pill. That is kind of funny you wake a person up to give them pills to put them back to sleep. Cousin B and myself will be turning in soon too. So at this point I will say good night and remember this is my first blog. K
