finally...

yes, it is official. tims first dose of chemotherapy was given at 1:30pm thursday afternoon.

we were pleasantly surprised how uneventful the first day was...stomach tolerated the first dose very well but he did get the energy "sucked" out of him. very strange how that stuff works...very scary how that stuff works.

we are on the road to a three day regiment...three different major chemo drugs and a few minor drugs given over the three days. some are given on all three days, some only on one day and some last for a full 24 hour infusion. sometimes i wonder how they keep it all straight.

on a side note...you ever see that comcast commercial where the guy is trying to get someone to talk to him about his tiger tattoos??? well, that is me tonight (no i didn't go out and get a tattoo)...i am talking to everyone tonight on (our) NEW HP DESKTOP COMPUTER...can you tell???

a few weeks back we got a HUGE surprise from the guys and gals at PEPSI. a brand new desktop computer, monitor and printer to replace our dinosaur. there are too many to name them all but they check in daily and they know who they are...thank you thank you thank you...tim and i thank you but the girls really really thank you!!! they are already making powerpoint presentations and typing up research papers for school. it is awesome...thanks also to matt for coming over and setting it up for us.

we have been blessed by so many and in so many different ways. somedays it is just mind-boggling.

well...i could go on and on but this old lady is dragging...gotta catch some sleep.

thanks for checking in.

thanks for caring.

(tim and) tammy
