Mom: New Stint, More Chemo

 It has been a while since I have given an update on Mom and this journey.  

February 22nd Mom and I headed to Birmingham to stay the night because we had to be at UAB at 5AM sharp for her stint replacement.  She has to get her kidney checked and the stint replaced about every 8 weeks.  

We headed up and turns out some good friends were heading home so we met up for supper :)...

 We made it there bright and early.

She was prepped and ready to go before we knew it.....

 It doesn't take long to replace a stint.  We were out of there before lunch :) and stopped at our favorite spot.... Cracker Barrel..... :))))

 We made it home in time for me to get the kids with Kyle and head to dance :).....

This past Wednesday morning we headed north again :) for Treatment 5 Day 8. 

 Kayla got little bit for me from pre-school :)!  Kyle's Mom spent the night with us and took the kids to school for me & picked them up.  So thankful I have help so that I can be with Mom :)....

Our must have lobby picture :)

 She had her labs and was waiting for the results :).....

I walked over to Children's Hospital to see my friend, Christina, and her precious baby & Mom sent this :).

 MeMe sent me this picture of her little side kick :) before they got the big kids......

Please continue to pray for Mom :)!  She is allergic to carbo which is in the chemo that she gets on day 1.  She has to take a TON of steroids to help with it because she can't not take the chemo.  This chemo is nothing compared to the last chemo, but it still makes her feel rough and she gets really bad headaches from the chemo.  She is a trooper and is still working!!

She will get a scan after her next 2 treatments.  We can't help but be ready for the scan and at the same time a nervous wreck.  

We have to keep telling ourselves...... 

So please just continue to pray :)!!
