4 more...

Mom and dad went to Birmingham Monday afternoon to get ready for her treatment on Tuesday morning.  This week, she had to wait for forever to get called back.  She normally gets called back around 10ish, give or take.  It was well after 4 in the afternoon before she finally heard her name called to go back.  Talk about a long day!

They are still in Birmingham.  Here is an update from Dad tonight:

Peggy was very weak after her chemo treatment yesterday.  The weakness continued into today, as well as nausea.  We finally got the nausea under control with the help of her medicines.  She also experienced the flu like symptoms today, where her body hurts and aches all over.  I decided at about 12:30 p.m. today just to keep her here in Birmingham tonight.  She has slept very hard today.  I hope she has the strength to head home tomorrow. 

Heard this song again tonight on the radio...



The part that says, She said, I don't think I can do this anymore... He took her in his arms and said that's what I'm here for...is the true epitome of my daddy.  Really do think Martina wrote this song about them.  He has to be strong when the one he loves most, is at her worst.  He really is one in a million.  We are two lucky, lucky girls.  What he would give, I'm sure, to take away all her pain. 


They also found out this week at treatment, that she only has 4 more treatments left until they do another scan to see how her cancer is (hopefully) disappearing and shrinking.  We are all super nervous and are anxiously awaiting to finally hear some good news. 

As always, keep her in your prayers.

xoxo,
