To melt your cares away,
And the warmth of Irish laughter
To bring gladness to each day
Greetings from snowy Denver! We have at least a foot on the ground already, and it's not supposed to stop until tomorrow morning.We're enjoying a great snow day at home. We even got to Skype with Jane for a while this morning while she watched Jack play. Not a bad way to start the day!
Big day for Jane today--she made a trip to the salon to get her hair cut off. She's heard from others that it's best to do it yourself before the chemo takes it away, so that's what she did. She looks great, and already has a green hat to keep her warm. Thanks to Heidi and Grace for going with her!
Jane is getting her energy back after a rough start to the week. She went to the ER on Monday feeling weak and dizzy. Her labs came back normal, but her blood pressure was low and she was dehydrated. Two IVs later, she was on her way home. The doctors felt that it was nothing more than chemo side effects. After a few good nights of sleep, she started feeling better again. Now that she's been through the first round of chemo, she has a better idea of what to expect (and when) for the next go-round, which makes it a little easier to face.
We'll leave you with a couple pictures of Jack enjoying the snow!
