I'm sorry for the lengthy delay in posting an update on Mom.

I was over at their house yesterday, doing a grocery run, and Mom seemed to be doing pretty well. She had physical therapy in the morning and was happy that she was able to do all that was asked of her by the physical therapist. She looked good, seemed stronger than she has in the past, and we had a good bit of conversation. She asked about the kids and was able to talk back and forth with me about them, and also about some other things.

This is pretty typical for the days leading up to a chemotherapy treatment. She will have her next one on Monday, May 3rd. These have been going well and she is tolerating the Taxotere just as well as she tolerated the cisplatin and Alimta.

So, things aren't really changing much, which in her circumstances is probably a good thing.

Thanks to everyone for the continued support, thoughts, and visits.
