How is Adrienne?

I wish I knew the answer to that question. While Adrienne's pain is much better, she's been feeling achy and short of breath. We'd like to do something to make her feel better but it's hard to know what to do. She's being a trooper, though, and we had a nice dinner last night. We all decided to forego gifts this year and shop the after Christmas sales, including a new cell phone for her. She'll get labs done this afternoon but I'm not expecting any big surprises.

On Christmas day, we decided to go see "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button." It's by far the best movie we've seen in a long time and I highly recommend it. Just be sure to bring plenty of tissues.

We're back to New York for chemo on January 12-14 and then Adrienne goes back to CMC to finish up her senior year. Wow, it's hard to believe.

I hope Adrienne continues to feel better, and that this holiday season has allowed some rest and relaxation from the battle at hand.

Good luck in New York, and then back to school.

Hi ladies : } Hope you've enjoyed a relaxing long weekend. How were the labs? Hopefully good and no surprises (unless they are good ones). Glad you answered my question about Adrienne returning to CMC and that you'll be returning to NYC for her next treatment. Maybe we can work out a visit when you bring her back to CA...let me know the date and maybe Rich will be willing to drive to Pamona for lunch.

((HUGS)) filled with loving support and friendship as always.
