I spoke with Mom tonight for an update on how she's feeling.
She had a blood draw today to check her white and red blood cells.
She heard from her Oncology nurse today and she needs to go back up to Seattle in the morning to get 2 units of blood. She is super fatigued, but no longer dreads the transfusions as she always ends up feeling better afterwards.
Dad is such a trooper. He is a tireless chauffeur and he sits with her for hour after endless boring hour and is happy to do it. Tomorrow they will be making the trek alone as none of us kids can make it, but with Mom able to walk again it is not as critical as before. Thank you Dad for loving our Mom so very well.
Aunt Soli stayed the night last night and hung out with Mom this morning while Dad was gone. Later, Aunt Edna came and she was the one to take Mom for the blood draw.
Thank you Aunties. We love and appreciate you!
I wanted to give you an update on Mathew, my cousin. He is finally out of the hospital. He got the chest tube removed and is staying with Dayla and Brett recovering. We love you Mathew! I am glad you are doing better and we will continue to pray for complete healing.
Love to you all,
Kimberly and family

ANOTHER TRIP TO SEATTLE???? You should be getting a discount for miles or something. Good for you Warren that you are in a position to be there every step of the way with Ladeva. When our daughter broke her neck when she was 16, Mickey was on a layoff and was able to spend every day with her in the hospital in Vancouver. I was working for your best friend then.... (not really.... but County nonetheless).... and wasn't able to go as often. They really bonded during that time, and today she is 41 and still Daddy's little girl. He said later that it was God, because he couldn't have left her side on a bet. Sometimes those of us who are 'well and healthy' feel helpless when our loved ones are going thru a valley... but we aren't at all helpless. We can surround them with love and comfort and call a hedge of protection around them 24 hours a day. When God calls us help mates, that is EXACTLY what He means. We could not do it without that other half of us carrying what they can. We love you both. Blessings....
Hi Ladeva and Warren. It is super good to hear that things are going fairly well, although there always seems to be a few bumps in the road. It's great that Warren is up to driving all these trips. What a blessing.
Love you girl

Our prayers are with you everyday, Ladeva. We will certainly be praying that the mouth sores go away very quickly. Oh ouchy, just can't imagine how horrible it would be not to be able to eat or TALK.
Love to all and please tell Dean and Elaine that Ed and I say 'hi'.
