Update re Vicki... 3rd radiation treatment today. Pathology sent the biopsy specimen out for further testing, to determine what treatment plan will work to kill the cancer cells. Radiation appears to be working to alleviate the pain. Therapists came in to help start to get arm and leg working again. Miss independent fell again last night after I left, trying to get to the bathroom on her own. Needless to say, she received counseling in this regard from me and the medical staff. She now has a bed monitor so the nurses will know when she gets out of bed. We are both so very grateful for all the prayers and well wishes. Jim

prayers and hugs, and get well wishes for the both of you. Thank you for keeping us updated.

Thanks for another update. I know it's hard on you both. Also wondering how the cats are dealing with Vicki's absence.

Love, much love......you are not on this journey alone.

I can’t help but understand what Vicki is feeling and why she is trying to be independent. I am doing the same thing and driving my hubby nuts. It sounds like you and the medical staff are taking super care of her. Please tell her, we want her to behave and get better. Our prayers continue and that includes you. We want you to take care of yourself. My hubby and I know how hard this is on you too.

MY prayers are with her

I am so grateful that you are keeping us updated, it means a lot. I love also her fighting spirit and determination even if she's naughty. Lessor pain is a blessing.

Jim, thank you for the update. Continued prayers and best wishes for both of you.

Thank you Jim for the updates... prayers are still coming your way for both of you. Yes I believe miss independent tried to get up on her own... We all think we can do it without help. Glad the pain is getting better. Give her a hug from all of us. HUGS Suzanne

Thanks for the update, Jim...not surprising that independence has risen up! So glad Vicki has finally getting some pain relief...sending love and light to you both...

Thank you for updating us. Nothing but good thoughts to you both.

So glad about less pain. I'm counting on that you are both very strong people - look what you've done in building and furnishing and landscaping this new house in the last few months. I'm hopeful that most of all that is finished, so when she gets home she can pretend to relax, rest, recover, recuperate and return to her old self (less the pain and lymphoma, of course.) She will be a new person, with new viewpoint on life. Praying for the little details in her care tonight.

Tell her we /I love her and are praying .Give her a big hugg from me pleasexxx

Thank you for keeping us updated. It's hard to be independent and suddenly not be able. Hug her gently for me. Prayers continue...

Hi Jim. I am glad that the radiation is helping her pain. I think Vicki needed a little more then counselling for being so independent 😊. This is not the time for that. I hope she did not get hurt with her fall. I am sending a virtual hug and love to Vicki. Do not forget to take care of yourself and once again thanks for keeping us informed.
