End of day 3, week 2A

This is just one of the walls in Ron's room.  The little picture is hard to see, its a group of people from the "Schreiber Family" on the back of the their shirts it says "Go Big Daddy" that for the people who are not in the loop is what the good people at Schreiber have nick named Ron.  They are such good people it's been such a blessing to be a part of this great company.

So today...at 10:10 a.m. Ron got his 4th dose, and right on schedule he began to rigger around noon.  It was a "good one," and took a bit of effort to help stop the shakes but he did and was able to have a nap and rest for a while.

Good friends Jeanette and Jennifer came to visit with food for Lori (yum) and Jeanette and her magic fingers gave Ron a much needed foot massage, Ron was so grateful, it felt wonderful to him and really helped him to relax! And I felt a bit spoiled myself.  Not to mention my dear sister who took a half day off from her job to come spend the day with me, Thanks Sheri I really appreciated it!

We have been so blessed with so much love and support from so many people we can't thank everyone enough!!!

So Ron is showered, took a good walk and the chances are good that he will be dosed again late tonight.  It may be a long one, but that is what we are here for! We have to get rid of that cancer and this is the best way to do it with the kind of cancer that Ron has.  So we will shake, rattle and roll as Ron says.  He is my Hero in every sense of the word!! Never a complaint or angry word, just positive thoughts and always smiles!


Here is Ron as you can see from his medicine tree in the back ground he is getting lots of stuff! Starting to getting swollen but isn't he cute! I'm so blessed to have such a positive man he makes everything so much easier! Day 3 is almost over half way through the week! So as Lindsey would say Fight, Fight, Fight!

And just a side note, Kaylee, Chase's wife has been our comic relief for the week so heres one of her jokes.

Why was the tomato blushing?  Because he saw the salad dressing  hahahah Have a great night everyone!
