10-23-2008 Good news for Pam. The transfusions she had last week left enough hemoglobin in her system to enable her to complete a chemo treatment today. This was the fourth of eight treatments in the current plan. Her doctor will probably order a blood test for cancer markers next week to learn how effective this chemical is in shrinking the tumor. The current plan does not call for any more scans until after the eighth treatment.

Pam still gets tired easily and works part time. Her involvement in the church activities and the support of all our friends and family keep her going. Thank you for your prayers and concerns. We are blessed!
