Getting ready!

How are we doing?

We're both doing well.........lot's of love, prayer, flowers, chocolate.....tears and friends!

Carmine's not driving yet, pain, fatigue, hard to get comfortable at night.

Today a PET scan, tomorrow chemo training, Thursday minor surgery installing the port, next week radiation consulting and then the start of Chemo on the 16th. Feels a lot like a freight train!

Carmine thrives on the hugs and connections.....Our kids, our parents, our family, our friends, she really enjoys the calls and visits.........call her, let her know when you're available, let her know you're thinking of her and praying for her.

Me, I'm not so huggy........don't ever hesitate asking how Carmine's doing, you'll know how I'm feeling when you ask about Carmine......

We've both grown a lot in the past eight years, we've learned a lot about loving each other and finding God's love and grace in the middle of pain. We're anxious about what the next six months will feel like, but are confident in the good outcomes. Carmine doesn't want to be an invalid, she wants the chemo to go quick and easy........PRAY she finds stamina and strength and is able to give chemo a big round house kick!
