There hasn't been much new information to post in the last few weeks.  Cathy has thoroughly enjoyed not having chemo this week.  She has been feeling pretty good in terms of energy and nausea.  Every once in a while she'll make a scrunched-up face and say, "Ew, I just tasted chemo."  

The big issue currently is leg and foot pain.  It seems like it might partly be peripheral neuropathy, but it could also be that gravity has just made the toxins from the chemo pool in the lowest area possible.  The oncologist said that leg pain is common amongst chemo patients at the end of treatment and afterward.  I give her massages almost every night, sometimes a couple of times.  She's also gone to have a professional massage.  Cancer Family Care has hooked her up with a masseuse specifically trained for cancer therapy.  We're hoping we can get a prescription written for massage so insurance can cover it.  The massage seems to provide some temporary relief for her, but it appears the pain is a lingering pain.  Hopefully, it will diminish over time.

We know and feel the thoughts and prayers that so many of you are sending our way.  Thankful doesn't begin to scratch the surface of what we feel.  We feel very loved and cared for by all of you and by Him.
