One Week DONE!

It feels so great to know we have finished the first week. Jack is doing very well. He has had no problem tolerating the chemo drugs and his radiation treatments have gone by seamlessly. Our travelling back and forth has gone well thanks to Jack's sister Jean on the Poulsbo side and his brother Don on the Seattle. Practically door to door service. We've learned to sleep on the ferry quite nicely. Today I was thinking it would be nice if they had beerths like on the train. HaHa. We eat breakfast at home and are back to Poulsbo for lunch. Not a bad day.

We had our first "doctor day" on Tuesday. According to the doctor, Jack is doing just great. He was having a little confusion (Jack, not the doc) so they prescribed an additional steroid to keep his brain from swelling. We'll know for sure if that is working in another 24 hours. I can already see a change to the better. After our doctor time we went out to lunch at the Portage Bay Cafe in the U district. I'd recommend it to anyone who wants a great meal.

Thanks to all of you for your cards, e-mails, visits and phone calls. Special thanks to Marcia and the families of HCC for providing some meals. I don't know what we would do without that. I've pretty much lost interest in cooking. so if it wasn't for them, Jack would be eating lots of TV dinners.

I'll post again next week after our doctor day.

Thank you for all the prayers and well wishes. It means alot to us!
