My hemoglobin got down to 7.9 so I got 2 units of blood today along with another bag of platelets since they were around 7 also. I guess that means the Chemo is doing what it is supposed to. Marc got to go ride with the club today down to Ohio Caverns, I am sure it was a much needed retreat. Donnie rode my bike since his forward controls broke, I told Marc to make sure Donnie blows my carbs out.
Dad made it up for a visit, it was good to see him, I know he was not comfortable seeing me like this though. MSgt Drake & his wife Desiree also came up to see me. Among other things Joe gave me his Air Force Marathon Medal which got my tear ducts rolling, I didn't want to take it from him, but I knew he wouldn't let me refuse it either. Maybe next year I can do the 5k with them, well see. I was able to go outside for about 20 minutes before everyone left, the weather was so warm, I would not have known that from looking out the window.
I have been real restless & having a hard time getting comfortable in the bed, they gave me an oxycodone for pain & an ambien later to help me sleep & needless to say I woke up because I had to pee but it was already to late, now that sucked!!! I won't be doing that cocktail anymore.
Tomorrow is the Blood Drive at ORW, I am so happy they are doing one. I hope there is a good turn out the blood banks are all running real low.
I love reading every one's comments on the blog it gives me something to check during the day. So please keep them coming, I don't feel so alone in this fight with all your support.

Hi Babe, on the way to take Brandon to the doctor. Hope you had a good night, Jan is here already and painting up a storm. Zack had discovered a game he likes on the computer so this monring was a chore getting him to eat cereal, bacon and toast...I can't forget the milk....this was his request for breakfast....when I wasn't looking the little turkey pitched the toast in the trash. I just saw it as I was taking the garbage out !!!! Kate ate her usual three eggs and milk.....Paige had grapefruit and nineteen million oatmeal bars ( not really that many)..hope you have a good day, you look good for being so ill kiddo. I'll talk to you soonly....take care...love you, Misty.
Hey Sandi,
We miss you around here, those plans might get dusty if you aren't here so I'm going to keep 'em dusted for when you get back! :)
I'm keeping you and your family in my prayer list. I'm glad you have a lot of love and support from so many people in your life. But if you need anything, I would be proud to be on that long line of folks you have to call on. I plan to get up there to see you when it is ok to do so. Hang in there Rooster, and we will keep your seat warm for you here!
Nichole at work (in case you know more than one :)
Hi Sandi,
Did I read what you actually did... naw, that can't be Sandi! Hope all is well otherwise. This is the first opportunity I had to get online...since WPAFB blocked the site. I can tell you're keeping your sense of humor.
I like the leather!

Hey Girly,
It was nice to actually see you in a pic with your visitors. I'm glad you have so many people that care about you. I just wish I could be there too. And, just so you know you do not look like you have put on any wieght yet. So, don't let that worry you. Bob said if he would turn out to be a bone marrow match for you, you can have anything he's got that you need. We all continue to pray and hope for the very best for you Sandi....Love & miss you bunches.
I haven't figured this thing out quite yet that previous comment was from Aunt Lynn. It asks for my password everytime and I guess I can't remember what one I used so it's anonymous....lol, Sorry!!!
Hey Sandi,
Just checking in to say, "Hi!" and that I am thinking about you. Nice job with all the pics!
I had never blogged before...so you're "my first". :o)(I always knew that you would get me into something! - haha)
BTW - liked the bike picture...nice....I used to have a red Suzuki Savage so your pic made me think about it.
Chicago weather nice....so far. Leaves are beginning to change here. I am getting in to a job search now. Thanks for getting me "linkedin". I look there from time to time to see if anything pops up.
Your pictures tell the story of a lot of love and support around you. Know that I am thinking about you.....Kathy

Good Morning Sweetie!!
It's 2:46 am, and once again I cannot sleep!! So, I thought, I'll get up and write Sandi!!
I saw Misty, Katie, Brandon and Zack yesterday. Zack was eating a bowl of cereal and watching a movie that he was totally engrossed in, Brandon was playing the drums on guitar hero (I think) and Katie was watching him. They all seemed in good spirits, Katie even gave me a big smile, and of course, a hug and kiss from Zack. I also got a piece of cake from Misty, and one to bring home, man, that's some good stuff!!!
The front hallway looks beautiful, it just really glows, can't wait for you to see it.
I rode for a little bit last evening, just enough to clear the cob webs out of my head, for some reason I really needed that. Sunday was good riding, but of course, it just wasn't the same without you. I'm used to riding behind you!! I enjoyed riding next to Thumper, I emiailed her yesterday and thanked her for not being 'ascared' to ride next to me!! We all missed you! Everyone went down into the caverns, I did not. There's something about being underground that REALLY bothers me!
Paul and I are doing well, he had wind damage to his house so he has been busy fighting with the insurance adjusters. Hopefully he got it all straightend out last night.
Well, I guess that's about it for me, I'll be down to see you as soon as payday gets here!! This wedding is keeping me pretty broke!
Call me if you need me. I love you
Betsey/Grace
