Third treatment done!

Sorry it's been a while since we've written; just very busy!



I think Jamie is doing great--she was sick for a little bit last week, but bounced back really well.

Last weekend we had some family and friends come help us--we cleaned up the house, organized the shed, got some bookshelves and unpacked all our books. It was a hard, but fun and productive day.

This past Wednesday Jame had her third chemo treatment (of four, for the first part of chemo). She has been really tired--stayed in bed most of Thursday and Friday. Got up for a while this morning and ate a little; even did some laundry (thanks Honey!)

I can't imagine what it feels like. Jamie is a really strong person, it's obvious the chemo just saps her strength and energy. Hopefully the medicine is killing the cancer cells.

My parents got into town Thursday night; they're here for almost 2 weeks. Yesterday Ashley flew to VA for spring break; visiting friends and her father and family there.

We've been reading some kids books about dealing with cancer with the boys, they seem to be doing OK. They are thrilled to have their VA grandparents here.

I think overall we are doing well. Jamie had a great attitude--she just keeps living life.

Thanks to friends who have helped out with meals, and driving and sitting with Jamie when I have to be at work. We are blessed!
