It's strange to have a bit of normalcy and not have anything pressing to report. Andrew handled his last treatment with such ease and has continued to go to work each day and keep himself busy. We celebrated our 3rd anniversary on July 29th .... 3 years of bliss is what Andrew calls it. I hear a bit of sarcasm in his voice when he says it, but I choose to ignore it!!!
He also had 2 good doctors appointments last week and will have a final one this Friday to make sure that his counts have rebounded enough to begin the next inpatient 3-day treatment next Monday. And the vicious cycle repeats itself.
Linda, Pete, Adam and Nikki (Adam's lady friend) are planning a visit this weekend to help Andrew and I put in a new front and back door to our house. As long as Andrew feels good, we are keeping the home improvement projects on schedule. As most of you know, Pete has to have some sort of home improvement project to accomplish every time he visits or who knows what he will get himself in to. I joke and say that Andrew will go into the hospital and come home a week later and ask ... where does that door go to? ... and my response will be .... well we left Pete in the house alone for a week, so he added a whole new wing onto our townhouse and that's the door that will get you there!! I joke, but you all know it's true!!
Gwen and Steve will also be making an appearance some time next week to relieve Lynn and Pete before they head to Adam's house for a few more days of home improvement madness.
Andrew and I will also be traveling to Johns Hopkins on Aug 19th to meet with Dr. Kristy Weber to discuss some, if any, of his surgical options. We look forward to hearing more about what comes next!!!
But besides that we are just gearing up for the weekend of the fam visiting and hope to meet up with Gary and Lanhi while they are in the area this weekend. We are also getting ready for their wedding in the next few weeks. So life goes on ... maybe not just as planned ... my clipboard of fun didn't have this detour on it! ... but we're taking each day as it comes and just putting one foot in front of the other.
See you later alligator .....
