Donna News


Many blog friends have asked about Donna. Today she had her 5th chemo treatment. I caught her just as she was leaving and asked permission to snap a pic and post about her. She's doing good so far. These next treatments will be the hardest. She's continued to work the weeks between chemo but I'm not sure if she'll be up to that this time. We'll wait and see and continue with prayers, dinners, and anything else we can do to help. We love you DJ!

She looks great and I'm glad to see this update. One of my friends who was visiting last weekend has just finished her chemo and is now in the radiation stage. What brave, strong, women. . .Will be so glad when we conquer this awful disease!!!

Cathy, you made my day. THANK YOU SO MUCH for the update on Donna. She looks as beautiful as ever.

She is an amazing woman and will beat this cancer. She is also an inspiration to other who are going through chemo.

It will soon be all behind her and she will be well again.

Big hugs to both of you. JB

Really do appreciate the update about Donna. So glad she is doing okay so far. She looks greata! I do hope that this fifth chemo won't be too much harder on her. Am I right about her being finished in August? If so, she should be over it all by the time we get there. We are still hoping that I will feel up to making this long trip we are contemplating........just hope that I get to feeling better than I do right now. I am actually not bad, it's just that I feel so darned weak.

Hope all is going well for you Kathy. I really appreciate your comments and e-mails. I feel we are really connected and I love that!!
