Results from the blood tests today showed that Ray's blood counts are steadily improving, so that means more chemo. We just got in from the hospital where he'll be receiving the chemo on an outpatient basis as long as he has no problems. Each day there will be a two hour observation after the chemo is administered, and then he can return home if there are no problems. If there are problems, i.e fever, chills, nausea, etc., then he'll be admitted and be in the hospital for the remainder of this 14 day treatment. We'll be working (and praying) most diligently, doing everything in our power to keep him healthy. Unfortunately, each drug has a long list of "common side effects."
He's been feeling pretty good. Doing many things that he wished he could do while stuck in the hospital. Right now, he and Daniel are working on a project in the back yard. We're most grateful for the times that he feels good enough to be up and around.
Love you all,
Kim

Yay!! Sounds like he is improving with the blood counts, just like the doctors were hoping. Keep up the good work and we will all keep up the prayers and good wishes.
Love guys, Gene and Michele
Ray,
May God bless you and your family as you move forward with the chemo. We pray that you will stay free of all side effects.
Love always,
David and Mary Lynn
PS We are certain Daniel is really enjoying your guidance on y'all's father/son project--how blessed he is!!! (Is Mary in on it???)
