We arrived in PA on Thursday. So far lots of visitors- family, friends, and nurses. The last nurse just left and the assigned a nurse that isn’t coming back until next week. It will be nice to have a permanent nurse visiting. The weather has been nice so far. Along with the humidity dropping. DayContinue reading “Thank you former co-workers…”

Well we are back. It is great to be back around family and friends but I know it won’t last forever. Mark rented a place in Wayne for us to stay. Not really sure what the plans are. I’m just here for the ride, lol 😆! Today we are going to go for a walkContinue reading “Back in PA…”

I came home from the hospital late Sat night (4/30) and have been recovering ok. Mark thought it was probably a night too early, but i wanted to get the hell out of there! My mom flew in to be with me and help out, but she left this past Friday. It was good havingContinue reading “5/14/2022”

Well, she decided she had enough of the hospital and convinced Mark to get her home last night. She got home around 10pm, and went straight to bed… did pretty good walking and up the steps for being in a bed for 4 days! Now Mark and Suz will keep an eye on her andContinue reading “5/1/2022”

5:00pm PT Jen is much improved from where she was. She drank some liquids and ate a little food (sort of, but her appetite seems to be coming back), and she’s more alert than previous days. We finally got her up and to the bathroom (twice), and she shuffled her way back to the bed.Continue reading “4/30/2022”

Jen is slowly improving. She’s moving out of ICU today (Friday) to a floor where she should need less frequent monitoring. They are now trying to get her to drink and eat more and do whatever it takes with the goal of getting her home. Her speech is a bit slow and processing conversations isContinue reading “4/29/22”

Hi Everyone, this is Kelly (Jen’s sister-in-law).  I wanted to give you an update on Jen’s week.  Before reading this, know that everything is better now…. On Tuesday, Jen went for her daily walk and didn’t return home.  After hours of searching, Mark found her at the local hospital.  The details are not 100% clearContinue reading “4/28/22”

Today was my final infusion. I’m not sure I’m going to get the next infusion next week but I have an appointment. We met with Dr Man today and she felt very much the same. At this point I’m just hoping I don’t get too sick. A big thanks to the Freeman family for theContinue reading “April 22, 2022”

I hate to report… Today I spoke with my Oncologist about my full spine MRI. Unfortunately there is nothing more that can be done. I asked the dreaded question, how much time do I have and unfortunately she told me 2-3 months. Not at all what I wanted to hear. Sorry, I don’t have muchContinue reading “April 18, 2022”

Hello everyone! I hope you are all well. Can’t believe it’s almost the end of April and tomorrow is Easter. We got the last scan, full spine MRI results. As expected things are worse. Multiple metastatic lesions throughout my spine, pelvic and metastatic rib disease and leptomeningeal disease. That sums it up but there wasContinue reading “April 16, 2022”
