Mom's Turn

Do you all know what peripheral neuropathy is? Well, we are learning. Oh, I guess you should all know that this blog is being typed and written by Elizabeth's mom. She is not up to blogging her fans, but wants you to know that she survived another chemo day....but just barely. Tonight she is nauseous, cannot feel her fingers, has a headache, joint pain, etc.....but other than that, all is well. She just gave me the thumbs up sign and I'm glad that she used her thumb...oh, oh, there is her fist. She has taken her medications for this evening (6 pills) and hopefully will sleep and feel better in the AM. Thanks to sister Carol and cousin Susan for accompanying her to chemo today and Amy for providing dinner. By the way, peripheral neuropathy is tingling in the fingers that prevent her from typing. Sure hope the chemo doesn't effect her voice because this Sunday at 4:00PM, she is part of the choral concert at Grace Lutheran Church in Yorktown Hts. Come one and all and hear Elizabeth with a solo and Katrina and friend Stacy, doing a duet. The admission price is $10.00 and the concert will be well worth it, if we can judge by the Christmas concert.
Elizabeth is questioning why I would think that peripheral neuropathy would affect her voice, but thinks I merely wanted to plug the concert. True, True, True. She just gave me a Bronx cheer. Ok folks, I'm not as creative as she is, so you will have to wait until tomorrow to hear directly from Elizabeth. Mrs. B

Yes, one more, but right before you are whisked away to that island (yes, we are all jealous), we have the Relay For Life on June 3rd, right after your LAST treatment! You go girl!

Hope you are feeling better soon.

Love, Janette

It is strange to blog to a blog I wrote....but I wanted to thank Sue Hausler who dropped off a yummy cake for us. I never even saw the tray until this morning. Thank you for thinking of us. By the way, I just checked on Elizabeth and she is looking better.

Morning EJ --

Although I know it'll be afternoon before you read this (grin).

I'm so glad that Carol and I could escort you to yesterday's treatment -- glad you brought your book along -- very entertaining.

Read you had a rough time last night -- but look at the bright side -- you only have one more and then it's DONE!!!!!!!!

Keep smilin! :-)

Health & blessings,
Susan
