Day 7!!!

Go to the bottom of the page for pix!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


Vern is starting to get severe mouth/throat sores from the chemo. They are serious. They are giving him morphine for pain. His counts have finally bottomed out. That means as of today he has NO immune system at all. He can not have any visitors that have been sick or even around anyone who has been sick for a few days. If he gets a cold or worse at this point it could be deadly. Its serious enough they won't even let him shower in fear he would hurt his port or fall as he is susceptible to bleeding for a few days.

If things continue doing as well as they have then in a week or little longer he might get to come home!!!! I sure hope so. I think being in your own bed is great for the mind and body. I know my own bed: well, there's just nothing like it!!!!

Vern, we are praying you don't get exposed to any germs today, that you have a restful day, and that you come home soon. We all miss you and love you!

Hey George!! I hear you aren't feeling so great but things are going as expected. Listen to your doctors and do what you are suppose to. I hope you get to come home soon. It's always better recovering at home than anywhere else. Take care,
Rhonda
