Not alone

We've made it to day 4. Things are going okay. The new medicine is still working but not as well as the first day. Jeff is sleeping right now and he slept really good last night. But after the news coverage of all the lions and tigers and bears he did have some bad dreams. But who wouldn't? Can you imagine if you lived in that town and all those wild animals were on the loose? Scary! Late last night I was watching some cable news show and they mentioned that a wild monkey was not accounted for and was presumed to still be wandering around. Although there was the possibility that one of the big cats could have eaten the monkey. I laughed until I cried. I know I'm sick and twisted but doesn't anyone else think that's a little funny?

Whenever Jeff goes into the hospital someone is always with him. He's never been alone up here. We realize what a blessing that is. I am so thankful that Jeff has worked hard so that I could be a stay at home mom and now not have to worry about working and taking care of Jeff. I'm also thankful for all our family and friends that help out with our kids so that I can be up here. There are so many patients that are up here all alone. No family, no friends, no church family. I don't know how they do it!
It's the hardest thing we've ever been through under the best of circumstances. Thank you, God.

Dr. Patel just stopped by and said the plan is for Jeff to take all 6 rounds of chemo? He is responding well and we should keep doing this treatment. Our immediate reaction was GREAT! But our next thought was CRAP! But I know he can do it! And we won't do it alone. Thank you, God!

Blessed,
Jeff and Leta
