Make Mary better

Hi Sis,

SOOO glad to hear from you!!!! I am so happy to hear that all is going along well. I'm REALLY happy to hear that you are tolerating the chemo treatments. I am a firm believer that uniting traditional and alternative treatments is the only way to effectively practice medicine. So good that it is becoming more widely accepted.

Sounds like your days are pretty well planned! Funny how doctors can do that, and that you actually look forward to them coming! I guess it's a need to have information and the control that having that information brings. I always looked forward to seeing the doctors when Lee was hospitalized because it usually brought more knowledge to the situation than you had before. It always feels better to have an understanding of things unfamiliar to us.

Any idea when they will allow you to go home? I cannot imagine how homesick you & D must be for your own sweet, cozy house! How is my favorite brother doing?? I actually miss reading his version of e-mail/ blogs...it's always so....entertaining! ( I love you D!!)

As for us...Dorian is finally on the mend! We go to the clinic each morning for packing changes (so they can closely monitor the wound) and then Lee does the one at night. The doctor yesterday told us it looks like it is finally beginning to heal "aggressively". Yay!!! After six weeks!! We met with her teachers and her principal today and everyone is so committed to getting her caught up on everything she has missed (the WHOLE third quarter!!! YIKES!!). We are so relieved that she won't be an 11th grader again next year!!!

It has been unseasonably rainy here the last three weeks. We actually had a flood when Dorian was in the hospital. Over 20 inches of rain in 24 hours!! It was really weird, I was watching it on the news in her hospital room. Places I am very familiar with that I didn't even recognize on TV!! CRAZY! We had a BEAUTIFUL day Tuesday, gorgeous! Super-bright sunshine ALL day long, big beyootiful huge super-white clouds, unbelievably blue, blue skies and the waterfalls are just amazing as a result of all the rainfall.

Now that our D is on the mend, hopefully I can find some fun pics to send to you. Dorian will have to help me since I am 'technologically challenged' when it comes to this type of thing!!! I'll see what I can do!

Sorry this is so long. maybe you can read a paragraph a day or something!!!!:-)
We miss you guys so much. You continue to be in our prayers. All our love to you both. XOXO
