I just got off the phone with Suzy, Jodi and Mom on their way home from Traverse. Suzy and Jodi had appointments in Traverse and received good news - very welcome right now in a busy, intense time. Mom spent the day at Bill's and Pattie's house. Mom is getting to spend lots of time with her kids and grandkids now that she's not working, and we like that a lot.
Suzy and Mom spend a lot of time together on the road. Well, collectively they do. Suzy's always on the run of course, and depending on what Mom has going she may be in the car with her several times a week. She has family doc appointments (recently due to the nasty cold thing everyone got), physical therapy appointments, and - less frequently - chemotherapy appointments. Tomorrow is Mom's second chemo appointment. It's an all day affair for Suzy and Mom, leaving the house around 9:00 a.m. and not returning home until around 6:00 p.m. We're encouraged from Mom's response to her first chemo dose that even though the day will be long, the procedure will go well and Mom will feel well too.
Suzy takes all of the running around in stride. She's taken on a lot - we all know it. She doesn't ask for thanks, but I'm very thankful for Suzy. We all are.
More tomorrow.
