March 26, 2011, Our Anniversary!

Hi there!

I'm way overdue for posting an update!! Clint's second round of chemo started out rough the week of the 8th, but thanks to all of your prayers, he handled it beautifully the rest of that week. He's enjoyed a couple weeks off of the chemo, and will start his last round on April 4th (this one coming up is the maximum dose they can give him). Clint will also have an MRI on April 11th to see how everything's responded to treatment (please keep that date in your prayers, we want good news!), and we'll have a follow-up appointment with his oncologist for those results on the 13th.

Clint's doing pretty good right now. He's not as tired as he was a few weeks ago, and though food was tasting different to him for a while I think that's starting to get better too. He eats well, thankfully. His vision is still blurry, he's still bald (I'm not sure when his hair is supposed to grow back....), and his memory is still a bit spotty (there have been some very humorous moments due to that). He keeps a good sense of humor about it all, though.

I want to send another big thank you to all of you who have donated (you guys have really been generous); your donations have covered his medications this month, and we really appreciate that! THANK YOU from the both of us.

I also want to thank the people who have been praying, those who stopped in to keep Clint company (he really looks forward to visitors), stocked our cupboards and fridge with food, helped with vehicle maintenance, and to some very good friends who have given me some great advice through this whole situation..

On a side note, today's our four year anniversary (I can't believe we've been married for four years already!), so we're having pizza at my mom's to celebrate and plan on a relaxing evening. :-)

I will definitely post the MRI results and other updates as they come!

Thank you for prayers and support!

Much love,
Reini
