Today (03/03) has been a pretty tough and rough day for Karen as she had a slight fever and elevated BP.  She did get up to eat Special K cereal along with her special fruit drink this morning, and at mid morning she took a short walk in the back yard to enjoy the beautiful sunny weather, she is whipped. has no energy and little to no appetite.   We had been told she would have days like this, I guess we assumed they we be closer to the day of chemo and not 2 - 3 days later.  Yesterday, Susan, the next door neighbor, cut spring flowers in her garden and brought a small bouquet to Karen.  They were beautiful.  Karen also received the cushion from brother Phil, it fits perfectly and definitely makes the wheelchair seat more comfortable.  I cannot say it enough "THANKS" to all of you reading this blog for your prayers, thoughts and expressions of support for Karen.  Be it cards, flowers, cushions, calls, etc., they all make the day brighter and this bumpy road a little easier to handle.  Thanks XOXOXO :o)
