Friday, August 24, 2007: Just Hangin Out

Man, Kristi hasn't had chemo in nearly 4 weeks. It's been a nice stretch. It reminds us of times before cancer. My old college roommate and his wife are coming over from Detroit this weekend to visit so that will be nice to catch up. Other than the neuropathy, Kristi has been feeling pretty good. We go in Monday morning for this new chemo plan...we're a little anxious how it's going to work. She's supposed to go in once per week, but with her counts being so low all the time we're not so sure about that. This new chemo is supposed to be more toxic, but have less severe side effects (mainly just knocking down the blood counts). Nothing has worked as they have predicted yet so we're a bit cynical about that. But, we're taking a "wait and see" attitude. Not much surprises us any more. But that's not til Monday...in the meantime, we're looking forward to another "bonus weekend" spending time with family and friends!
