Last night at 6:00pm Pat started his chemo.....Yeah!!! It will run continuously for 4 days. So far he feels fine, no side effects. He worked out in the group exercise class today and plans on going again tomorrow. I had the opportunity on Sunday night to attend a wedding on Pat's hospital floor. A 19 year old female patient was married in the waiting room on the 5th floor. She looked beautiful in her wedding dress and we all lined up in our mask and gloves and cheered her as she walked down the "aisle" from her hospital room to the waiting room. Just another example of the determination of cancer patients not to allow their disease to control every aspect of their lives. A big THANK YOU to everyone who has signed up to donate or has already donated platelets. I realize it is a big time committment, we are so appreciative. Thanks Dad for getting the info out to all the AHAB employees and for AHAB's offer of transportation. Let us all direct our prayers for Pat to continue his treatment with no side effects and for this chemo to do it's job and knock this leukemia out!! God bless you all.
Love,
Jules

We are really happy and so glad that the process has finally started. We will be wishing and praying for you everyday as we have been. Know that there is not a day that goes by that we are not thinking of you and wishing and praying you were back home with your family.
Cant wait for our next adventure - I will be planning a real nice one to make up for the lost time. Get ready....we can see the light at the end of the this tunnel.
Keep up the fight!!!!

Dear Julie,
Laurie Jenssen (Linda Vista) and I talked with your dad and sister at Coco's one day. Your dad told us about your husband. We are so sorry you all have to go through this.
We wanted you to know that we are thinking of you. Keep up that positive attitude.
Take care.
