She just wants to feel better…

Hello Family and Friends,

It’s GREAT to have the family all under one roof in Austin TX. Jennifer is doing OK, we went to Houston last week and the counts all look good but she is still fighting the C-DIF and the medicine they put her on is very hard on the stomach and it makes her sick. She has to take this 3 times a day.

They had to put her on fluids every night to keep her from dehydrating. They are slowing cutting back on her morphine. Mary has to give her the morphine at 9 and 3 every morning and night. We have to do this for 2 more weeks.

Jennifer just wants to feel better and start doing things with her friends. Hopefully by the end of the week she will start feeling better. She is being very strong and she just wants to feel better.

This is just another step up the mountain.

Jennifer Poem’s “The Mountain”

When the task at hand is a mountain in front of you, it may seem too hard to climb. But you don’t have to climb it all at once — just one step at a time. Take one small step…and one small step…then another…and you find…the task at hand that was a mountain in front of you … is a mountain you have climbed……..

Thanks
Tim
