Tuesday, May 22, 2007: Round 4, Dose 2

Today’s stomach port treatment went better than expected. Again, it was pretty “business as usual”. We arrived by about 8:45AM and they were able to get her in right away. We left there by about 4:15. The pain was minimal for Kristi and she basically just slept the entire time. They just basically pumped her full of fluids and chemo all day…she left the hospital 8 pounds heavier than she came in! That was about it! Here is a picture of our chemo nurse…Greta!

We stopped at my sisters on our way home and were able to visit with them for a bit. During the week at Mayo Clinic, Eric was diagnosed with Lou Gerrig’s disease. They had some sort of an idea going in that it may be that. Right now they are learning as much as they can about the disease. Their prayer is that God will allow Eric many more years here with us and also for the miracle of a cure to this disease. So, please pray with them on these requests.
