Very Tired

Shirley had Chemo on Tuesday this week so today is the day Shirley is very tired. Very fatigued. Very weak. And even with that, I just talked to her and she is still working from home. She said she slept quite a bit this morning. Which I am sure her body really, really needs.

Tomorrow some of us are going to see Beauty and the Beast at Theater in the Park. Hopefully, Shirley will have gotten some of her strength back and we can enjoy that. And then back to Chemo on Monday.

Update - we have finalized our plans for our St. Louis trip. Unfortunately, not all can go. It will be Mom, Shirley, Kathy and Teresa. We will be taking a trip to St. Louis on July 25th and returning on July 27th. We will stay at a very nice hotel called the Renaissance. We are going to make this as relaxing a trip as we can for Miss Shirley and I guess the rest of us too. Although I hear there is a casino very close by, it will be hard for us to resist that. I am really looking forward to some bonding time with my mom and sisters. It will be a lot of fun.

This weekend lets pray that Shirley will get her strength back to enjoy some of her weekend and prepare for her next round of chemo. I guess we know now how important it is that she stays strong for the chemo since it is doing such a good job!!! We love you Shirley.

First off,

Hello Kathy, Teresa, and Shirley!!!
This is Brian Biles from Bonner Springs (also Haven Baptist Church. Shirley, I found out about your condition from over on classmates.com Even though this website was "xxxxx'd" out, I sort of put 2 and 2 together and came up with 5!! Actually, I just Googled your (married) name and it brought me here. I pray that the chemo is doing its job and that you are in no pain. I couldn't imagine going thru that, but in the photos, you look very healthy and happy. It was great getting to look at all the photos and seeing all 3 of you. Brought back alot of memories. I live in Vero Beach, Florida, still (amazingly) single, never married.
I will pray for your continued recovery and wish all of you the best.

I'm not too worried about you girls
going to St Louis, but I'm afraid your mom will get you in trouble.
So if you need bail money call me.
Hope you have a GREAT TIME!!!!!!
