Ok, so anyone who reads this blog will see that I am probably the worst "blogger" ever! I kinda felt like a broken record there for awhile, Adair's counts low, needs transfusion, Adair's counts low, needs transfusion... You get my drift. So I was waiting for something exciting to post but, well... not much has changed. So far every week since January we have been in the hospital for one thing or another. Adair just came home Sunday evening from another round of chemo. It seems like the farther we go, the longer his stays are. This time almost 7 days. He did really well with the treatment, the only complaint this time around was heartburn. That is something new that started with the last round of chemo. I think he prefers the heartburn to the nausea/vomiting of days past though, a little Tums and voila, all gone! Like always, he's hangin' in there. He is getting cabin fever though. A couple of weeks ago he went and visited some of his old coworkers and it was heartbreaking for me. He came home and said "that was so great, I actually felt like a human being again." I can't wait for the day that he is back to his old self and able to do all the things he wants to do. Simple things like work. Most people curse work but it's really something that is taken for granted. Working entails a lot more than just going and doing a job. It is a time of interaction, friendships, socializing, you know? Cancer can be very isolating. Well, enough of that...

We are hoping to escape this weekend for a little R & R by ourselves. I think breathing in a little coastal air would do us a world of good. I can't wait!!

So thanks for being patient with me and my non-blogging self. As always, I will try to do better! ;) Please keep Adair in your prayers, I know he's close to beating this.

I ALWAYS KNOW
GOD WON'T GIVE
ME MORE THAN
I CAN HANDLE BUT
THERE ARE TIMES
I WISH HE DIDN'T
TRUST ME SO MUCH.
