its the start of another week...
and i must admit this last week went MUCH better than we had expected!!!
thanks go out to all who sent mom a comment-if you still wish to add one for her i will make sure that she gets it when she returns to the 'burg.
i just called out to the nursing station, as i do most mornings between 5-6am and they say that tim had a great night-slept like a baby!!! yesterday was fairly uneventful...he was much more tired and needed his first of many blood transfusions, but that is to be expected. his mouth sores are getting worse, but he can still manage without pain meds and he can still eat a little (although he really doesn't have much of an appetite). i was still able to get him up and out of bed to walk a bit, which they say is very important...i just have to keep reminding him that he made me promise him that i would keep him moving even when he didn't want to...wish me luck. his mind is clear-and that is a huge blessing. so...all things considered i would have to say that "things are pretty good" for being 4 days post-transplant.
pray for ashley today-she is running a temp and not feeling the best. (can't have sickness in this house!!!) as you remember tim in your prayers for his recovery add a little request that the rest of his family, especially his #1 caretaker stays healthy also. there is a lot of sickness out there and we can't be bringing it home now.
well, i must be getting the kids out the door and treck back to hershey-thanks for stopping by.

Wow!
It is go good to hear Tim , you and the Girls had a good weekend! We have been thinking about and praying for all of you.
Tammy, Having your Mom help out is wonderful as you too need to catch your breath and it is not easy to do with end of school activities, sports, etc.. I don't know how you have managed up to this point!
Tell Tim, his Pepsi friends at the BU all ask about him and are praying form him quite often:) Twigg
