Spring is coming

Hey Y'all,

It is warming up here in Charleston and I can feel spring right around the corner. With Spring comes new life and new beginnings and I know we are gonna get some of that newness. Earl is hanging in there and keeping his chin up with each treatment and each new day. We are nearing six weeks of completion of this round. I think they will do a CT scan soon to see our progress and hopefully we won't need to do another six weeks of this horrible stuff. He had a rough week last week. He had all three chemos on Monday, March 1 and came home with the four day pump of 5-fu, which is a continuous run of chemo. We got the pump off Friday. It was a rough weekend but he has bounced back. Even played 18 holes yesterday! Did I ever tell you how much he amazes me? Every time I think he is at his lowest, he just surprises me. I read yesterday, that when life gives you a setback, that gives God an opportunity to bless you with a comeback! Well we are ready for the comeback and what God will bless us with. We have so many friends and family that call and check on us and uplift us everyday. Thank you all! It just really means so much to know how much you care about us. Love you all! Donna & Earl
