update on Dolores Deblaze

(From her daughter)
 
Hi, Everyone -

Tuesday was a fairly good day for mom.  She had her 4th radiation treatment and ate fairly good.  Hip, hip, hooray!!  I almost called the police, fearing she was kidnapped by her radiation driver (smile).  As it turns out, they grabbed a bite to eat after the treatment.

Last night was a rough and we didn't get as much sleep as we would've liked; sure wish we could've slept in more (yawn!), but the cat was crying and the phone kept ringing.  Mom seemed much more tired today and I've noticed it's a little harder for her to catch her breath at times.  

Today, mom completed her 5th and final radiation treatment at Siteman for now.  I'm so proud of her and she's been a real trooper.  She's met some really great people along the way (ie. Dot -- a staff member who was kind and brought her ice chips this afternoon).  We had a good dinner, and I treasure every minute with Mombo.

That's all for today.  Let's be thankful for all our blessings and pray for mom's courage, comfort, and peace—thank you!

XO,

Dawn
