A Week at Home!!! YES!!!

Do you all realize how long we've been gone???? We just kept rolling when we started home. Joe popped open a can of Glytrol & I ate part of a can of vienna sausages (UGH!!). We did stop for a snack somewhere around Tuscaloosa, but got right back to rolling. Joe has really had a hard time since we've been gone. He's lost about 32 lbs. We just didn't realize how hard the radiation would be on him. He stayed exhausted..no appetite..nausea & vomiting..pain swallowing ..then extreme pain when the food reached his esophagus then stomach...then the fevers. After 12 days in the hospital..they called it tumor fever. Hey, we are also survivors of Hurricane Ike! We still had no power the day we started home. We were so...glad to cross that Alabama state line. Now for the gooooood news..Joe is eating much better & keeping it down. He still has no energy much..but that will just take time, good nutrition and rest. We are scheduled for more tests the latter part of October...We're hoping & praying that they will still show..no tumor present! So..please continue to keep us in your prayers. Love you all....Joe & Sandra
