Delwin, made it though the first round of five days of chemo. Now three weeks off, but with two blood checks and a Dr.(oncologist) visit during that time. We had jason non-mission farewell it went really well. I am very glad that he doesn't leave tell the 29th. Delwin is working every day now almost all day long however today he came home pretty tired I had forgotten that the dr. said the fatigue from the radiation could come back 6 to8 weeks after the last day of radiation. Sure enough 6 weeks yesterday. I am hoping to keep him home tomorrow but will just have to wait and see what he decides to do. I realized I didn't announce the birth of our second grand baby on Sept. 4th a baby boy 6lbs 7oz 20 1/2 inches long, Camden is his name. He is beautiful! mother and baby doing great! now we have one of each!

1st day of Chemo, so far so good. It was very hard to send him off to work without me. I didn't think I would miss going with him but I do. I have been able to get a lot done though so I haven't wondered what to do.

Well we haven't hear from the surgeon yet but our family Dr. said that he had look at the MRI and the there had been no growth from the last MRI so that is really great! We then saw the Radiologist and he said the same thing so that was really great as well! and now with the chemo treatments we hope to see it shrink!!! "Because of if anything can go wrong it will" Delwin will not start that chemo until Wednesday September 8th we hope that he will handle it well. Tomorrow I am sending him to work by himself. If he leaves work before he gets really tried he should be fine. I have to get ready for Jason's non-farewell on Sunday and finish getting him ready to leave! It is really coming fast.
We have had several people tell Delwin that he should take the time off and not worry about work. I know that in his head he see me a 47 year old who as no working skills to provide for our family. Jason leaving on his mission and a possible wedding (Keriann) before Christmas. He feels very much the need to take care of us! It is also a gauge for him to see where his recovery is. He knows it will never be the same but he working hard to bring back as much as possible.
