today has been so much better. i am not sure if it being off the chemo 4 days, 4 days of her new dose of decadron, or mom being here, but it was a better day. she ate a little for break fast and lunch, and had an ensure milkshake for dinner. she sat up alot of the day and all three of us had some good conversations.
she is still very weak and needs a little help to the restroom but even that was so much better.
i am always amazed at the people who are helping in whatever way they can. some of our church family showed up with a card and hugs, just what karen needed. every time i turn around some type of love is thrown our way. just when i think more cannot come, it does even better than ever.
even this three day weekend was a blessing at the right time.
daren, her dad, and sarah drove out early this morning and are home in arkansas. sarah saw karen at her lowest, and i wish she could see her now, but i hope she understands how much we love her, and how we thank her, and how much we needed her this last week.

Doug, I'm sad to hear that Karen and all of you had such a trying time this past week, but very happy to hear she has improved over the last couple of days. Thank you so much for the updates, it helps when those of us close to karen wish we could be there.
Love and prayers to all of you,
deb
Glad to hear that things are going better. I think of you and Karen everyday, and keep you in my prayers. You are doing an amazing job! I hope you were able to get outside for a few minutes to enjoy this beautiful day.
This is such great news - I an so happy for her and all of you.
Just goes to show what a fighter Karen is - and my prayer warriors are still working for all of you!
Thanks for all the updates Doug.
