Day before we start

Laura and I are here in Durham ready for "round 2". We got here about 12:30 and have been busy since then. I had a ct done and Laura started getting the apartment ready. We had our two chairs and couch delivered today and that is going to make all the difference in the world. The old rentals were just not that comfortable!

Below is the schedule for next few days. We are here and John is starting his shots in Wilmington and then heading up to Durham on Sunday.

Leaving today was not fun, I cannot lie. But we are in good spirits and are ready to tackle this chemo again. Saying goodbye to the dogs was tough but they are in good hands with their grandparents. I cannot imagine the people who do this and have to say goodbye to their kids.

All the support we have gotten has been tremendous. We cannot thank you enough. Hopefully the next few days will go as well as it did the first time, with limited side effects from the chemo.

Thanks for checking in on us! God is good!
