Update on Leigh...

It has been two weeks since the rod was put in and she is moving around a lot better. She feels stronger and hopefully soon we can say good bye to the crutch!! She will be continuing the chemo for two more rounds (two months for two weeks on and one off) then they will do scans again. The biopsy showed that some of the cells in the tumor had died, but they do not know for sure if it was because of the chemo or if they just died. I got to go with her this past Thursday thanks to T and Mom for watching the kids. I met the doctor and pulled out questions and I know she was like and you are???? Well little did she know that I am the little sister with lots of questions! Leigh did well as always and our hope is that this will do the trick! Thanks for all you thoughts and prayers!

Let Leigh know we are thinking about her and praying for her. Anytime you want to go with her, just call me and drop the kids off over here at the house. You should take advantage, I am right down the street!!

For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future. Jeremiah 29:11

Audrey Hepburn:
“For attractive lips, speak words of kindness. For lovely eyes, seek out the good in people. For a slim figure, share your food with the hungry. For beautiful hair, let a child run their fingers through it once a day. For poise, walk with the knowledge that you never walk alone. People, even more than things, have to be restored, renewed, revived, reclaimed, and remembered; never throw out anyone. Remember, if you ever need a helping hand, you will find one at the end of each of your arms. As you grow older, you will discover that you have two hands; one for helping yourself, and the other for helping others.”
