It's Monday everyone,

That must mean it's chemo day. Although we all seem a little low energy, Ian did fine today and has even gone to the play rehearsal that he doesn't usually get to on Monday evenings. It was nice to be home in time for dinner before the kids went off to rehearsal, which we had only thanks to a local "food fairy" who gave us a bunch of delicious soup yesterday. Wonderful!

This last week turned out to be much better than the first week of chemo when we had the same drug combo. We are very grateful for that! Ian did quite a bit of walking this week, including walking 10K (over 6 miles) with his friends who participate in a local even with a team in support of him and to raise money for the Leukemia Lymphoma Society. They raised over $500! It was a very special gesture on their part.

Although we have so much to be thankful for, the wear and tear of stress is showing a bit in our family. Helen is also heading into finals next week, so we very much appreciate your prayers for the whole family.

Thank you so much for your love and support, Natalie
