WED & THURS UPDATE October 30, 2008

WEDNESDAY

So, after getting the kids off to school I came inside and Gary was starting to get ready. As I already told you there were not appointments scheduled for the day so I was curious as to what he was getting ready to do. So I asked.
He was actually getting ready to come with me to run all my errands. What do you think is the next best thing to Gary providing me with transportation? Being iwth me in the car would be the correct answer. You all know how much I hate to drive but for the first time in a very long time I actually did not mind the thought of running all ovedrr town because Gary was going to come with me!

We went to the bank and the post office and the Hallmark Store and the gas station and the pet store and on and on. I actually had a great time and Gary hung in there the entire time. He never got out of the car BUT since he was with me we ALWAYS got a SUPER CLOSE parking spot in HANDICAP! It is so nice not having to hunt for a spot everywhere you go. I was in and out of every place we went very quick and I loved it!

THURSDAY

Gary has another okay day today. He is actually sitting in bed right now eating Captain Crunch with Crunch Berries. He loves his cereal.

We were off and running early this morning to Dr. Fee and Dr. Barth's office. Fee gave Gary clearance to get off of all antibiotics which is great. Not sure what is causing the fevers but I suspect chemo.

Gary's counts were great so no need to go in tomorrow! YEAH!! We have a nice 3 day weekend break from the office.
The kids are excited about Halloween and they are ready to trick or treat. We will go out tomorrow around 6:30 and I am sure the boys will want to stay out as long as possible.

I had our annual 4th & 5th grade Halloween Party tonight. We had a great time together. It was nice to really
spend time with the kids. We have some greta kids at our church! Zach is at a sleepover and the other boys are fast asleep.

As you continually pray for us and for Jeff Spears and his wife please add my friend Sue to your list. She is a friend from Hoag whose husband has been fighting leukemia and he is on a downhill slide right now. She is strong and she and Larry have been together for 46 years. But, she is human and she needs our prayers and well wishes. So, send up a prayer for their family. She has been wonderful to me and we have had hours of conversations and I just adore her.

I am going to lay down and hopefully have a wonderful slumber!

Love to ALL,
Lisa
