update

This is Cindy's daughter Jess updating the Blog for today. She looked better this morning when we came to the hospital to see her. She had a few tears thinking this has to be over soon. She is getting a lot of inspiration from all of your posts so don't think for a moment that your thoughts aren't helping. She got pretty sick today but she is not going to let her spirit fall. She has started her second bag of blood and the nurses said that this should make her feel better since her hemoglobin was so low. The kids (Alexa and Alayna) came up and were great up there. They stayed about 7 hrs with a little complaining from Alayna. Alexa snuggled right up to her Nana in bed and brought a smile to Nana's face. Tomorrow she should be done with her first and hopefully final round of Chemo.(So keep that in your prayers!)We all believe that it will be gone and this nightmare will be all worth it.(Easy for me to say)She is a trooper!!!! Thanks to everyone because without all of you this fight would a much tougher battle. Kate to you ,eventhough I have never met you, you have made a lasting impression on my mother. She told me today in the hospital when we were talking about some of the post she told me that you were her inspiration. I thank you! You all are like family and together we ALL will get through this and realize what blessings we all have in our lives, that up until these past few weeks all of us probably have taken for granted. Hopefully she will be able to write soon as for now she needs some rest and when she is up to it I am sure she will.
Thanks to all!
Jess
