Hello Everyone

This is the 5th time I have started to write but i get worn out and don't get them sent out.
As you all know, we are ahead on the progress of my treatment. Even though progress is good, I am still very ill between the pnemonia, Chemo, IV's, blood work, and all the other test. It keeps my day busy plus I have several different Doctors in and out of here all day long, morning to night. As you know, I have been on heavy pain pills for a long time which became a problem for me. I spent the last 5 days detoxing from the morephine which was pretty bad. Thanks to God and Dennis by my side, I got through it and now I am being treated with all natural pain relief. I have my senses back and I am feeling much better. I still have fluid in my legs which they are treating aggressively. My legs are finally starting to lose some of the fluid which feels much better. They keep checking for blood clots and I am clear from that. So, over all things are good. I had my third Chemo treatment on tuesday. Everything has gone well. I seem to be tolerating the Chemo without any problems.
TO ALL MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS
I miss you all terribly. I miss not hearing your voices and seeing your faces. I know I well be home soon and we will all be together again. I am sorry about holding up everything on Mom's house. I know everyone wants that to be done and over with. i thank you for all your prayers and everything you have done for Dennis & I.

God Bless you all
Mary
