Lynne experiences increased fatigue with each chemotherapy treatment as the strength of the chemotherapy agents increases with each dose. Lynne is sleeping and resting more following the last treatment compared to the earlier ones.

We are looking to spending some time on Thanksgiving with some family and friends although I expect the day will be exhausting for Lynne. She enjoys the opportunities to get out of the house for a while.

As always, we are thankful for your prayers and thoughts as she battles her brain cancer.

Regards,

Today, Lynne is going through the third chemotherapy treatment in this series. So far she is tolerating this series better than the initial treatments in 2007. At least her blood counts are stable. The IV needle pulled out midway through the treatment and left a golf ball sized lump but is reducing quickly and does not appear to be serious. We expect a few days of rest ahead, at least for her. She is a little dizzy at the moment. She did receive a nice therma-pedic pillow from a drawing at the chemo center. The gifts are courtesy of a gentleman that donated money to the center after the recent loss of his wife to her battle with cancer.
