Thursday....February 19th....2009

Short version tonight...it's late and we are tired........

Linda's medication....a low dose of morphine to ease the cough was hard to locate as the pulmonologist wanted a certain brand..we had to go back to Bend to get a "hard copy" of the prescription which is required of narcotics and then a pharmacy south of Bend to pick it up. Linda has taken it and as she says "the jury is still out".

Linda looks very tired today....she is dealing with several things including the cancer.....and it is showing on her....tomorrow I'm working on her getting more rest and letting the "outside world stay outside".

Thanks for the cards and the special little extras..we know many many people care and know she is fighting a tough battle...keep the comments coming...they give her strength.

Linda is starting acupunture again next week...tomorrow she is going to meet with a person locally to see if that's where she wants to go....

How do you find such appropriate cartoons, Dave? You keep us informed AND entertained. What a guy!
Sounds like both of you might need to close the doors and regroup. You have accomplished a lot in a short amount of time.....with business and medical to-do's.
Thanks so much for keeping us updated. NOW REST......and breathe.

I totally agree ..REST..REST..and REST. Shut your little mind off and let the rest of the world go by for the day and if that works try it another day.
This will be good for both of you.
I am also glad that you keep us informed of things.
Take care-
Janet

What a busy week you two have had. I get so frazzled when life starts to interfer with my calendar. I just get a flow goin and something pops up, and throws it of, then it takes me for ever to get the flow back. Or at least that is how it feels.
Hang in there, relax, recup.
Dont worry bout tomorrow cause tomorrow never gets here, because by the time tomorrow gets here it is Today. Love you guys, my prayers are with you, Vicky

Hope you both have a very peaceful weekend. Kick up your feet and don't lift a finger until the sun comes up Monday morning!

REST - it's what the doctor prescribed!

Realized this morning that I was having one of those days when I forget to breathe. Sounds like you're still in the thick of the same thing.

As everyone else has said, rest, relax, try to take it easy. Block out the world and sit quietly together. Turn off the TV, don't answer the phone and take a few days off. We can wait for you.

Love to you both, as always.
