"I'm Feeling Better"*

After one day of chemo, some of Pam's symptoms seem to have improved.  Her gums, mouth, and lymph glands are less sore and swollen. She has a little bit of edema in her feet, but nothing unusual.  We took a short walk up and down the halls with Brother Mark.

Keith and Katie came for a visit, which was great.  It means a lot to Pam.

But... they obviously didn't get the memo about bringing flowers.


I have a business trip to Arkansas scheduled for this coming week.  I was thinking of cancelling, Pam thinks I should go.  I really don't want to because if Pam is going to get out of the hospital during rounds of chemo, it would be right around that time.  I am going to check with work and see if someone else can make the trip in my place.
