Hi everyone, I am trying hard to get to sleep and not doing very well. It has been several days since I checked in and thought it was time.
We have had another busy week. Jen continues to work hard in rehabilitation. She has had another appointment with a "hand specialist" in Ft. Worth and she is weighing all of the pros and cons of the options that are available to her.
I continue to be amazed at her strength and determination. Our friends, Sharon and Glenn Ringler are coming tomorrow as Sharon has another appointment with her doctors at MD Anderson on Monday. They have known Jen since she was 3 months old, so we have lots to talk about. Pray for her, as she has been working with chemotherapy for several months and has lots to tackle in the months ahead.
Little Matthew will be with us tomorrow night, and Jen is looking forward to that...he is so upbeat and fun and helpful.
Tomorrow morning our friend and "makeup artist", Cecile, is coming to help Jen with her makeup..she and Ann will start the day off right!
I miss you all so much but am so thankful that I have the ability and support from my work to be here. Randy and Martha will be back next weekend and we are really looking forward to that.
Don, the wonderful methodist minister that has befriended Jen and our family, gave us a CD of a sermon he preached about her...it was such a gift, as is he.
Our dear friend Taylor Hess will be leaving for Japan soon. He came to visit Jenny a couple of weeks ago and really made her week. Another special person, among so many we all are thankful for.
All for now. Just wanted to touch base and let you know we are so appreciative of all of the cards and notes and support. The days get awfully long and there are some pretty rough moments, but we just keep on going one step at a time.
Love,
Marilyn
