As I sit here this afternoon trying to recover from my morning bike ride, typically the most difficult of the week, I thought I’d better take this opportunity to update everyone on what is going on!

I really thought I had a lot more to say, but the longer I pondered exactly what to write, I found there was less and less to write about.

So quickly I’ll just update everyone on how Edie is doing.

Fortunately Edie has been feeling much better as of late, albeit that’s compared to how she has felt previously. She still has some problems relating to the chemo, and the dialysis, but overall, she is in much better spirits, and that is encouraging.

Currently Edie is in the middle of her second course of treatment, with another potential 6 to go after this one is completed next week. That will end just in time for our planned trip to New Zealand this coming March.

We’re also hopeful the dialysis will only be temporary, as the Velcade and Doxil do their stuff, controlling the myeloma. Only time will tell of course, but his is her third treatment regimen, and you know what they say

the 3rd time’s the charm.

Oh, and today was Edie’s birthday, and she even went to lunch with a good friend today to celebrate.

This evening I’ll take her out for dinner to celebrate as well.

  1. Take her somewhere really swanky.

    I’m glad to hear she is up and about.

  2. I did, and I killed two birds with one stone.

    I took her to a fancy steak house, where I ordered steak to get extra red meat to build up my iron levels.

    Took Sylvia also!

  3. Oh how sweet of you to take the ladies out.

    FYI I did not get a message that a comment had been posted and I use to get them.

  4. Happy belated birthday to Edie!

  5. I just want to wish Edie a very happy belated birthday, and many, many more!
