3/22/10 update & Sanibel




Well, first of all I want to cover our trip to Sanibel! It was wonderful even if I did get sick with mouth sores and stomach upset...it was just a beautiful and restful trip. I did rent a wheelchair while there so that I could get around better. We took a couple of driving trips to Captiva where the water was even bluer and more beautiful. I made arrangements with the airline for a wheelchair at each stop which worked out great as we just whizzed thru security even though I had a patdown at Fort Myers, FL airport. We got back Saturday evening, had one day of rest and proceeded on to Duke on Monday and then the doctor was behind so did not get to chemo until 5:00 pm., so we did not get home until after 9:00 that night, which is how it goes sometimes. I have been scheduled for updated scans on April 16, can't believe it Will have been another 8 weeks gone by. I could not eat very well when at Sanibel so missed out on the seafood but did get to try alligator strips before I got sick...a little stringy but tasted a lot like chicken. Lost 4 more pounds but my mouth is much better now and getting so more protein back into my food line so probably will put some of that back on. I'm going to try and attach some photos from our trip and hope that you all enjoy. Thanks for the prayers, emails and calls. Love to all, Janice
