April Update - radiation, appendectomies, and more…

April 23, 2009

Sarah began radiation last week, and the first couple of days were pretty tough, but by the end of the week, it was starting to go more smoothly.  From what she has described to me, it is quite an ordeal - everything has to be JUST so, and in JUST the right place, and she has to take DEEP, LONG breaths and HOLD it while they “zap” her - several times - but the technicians are kind and they hold their breath right along with her.  All in all, it’s going well so far.   She’ll do this five days a week for about 6 more weeks…

And of course, there is NO rest for the weary these days, which is why after just two days of radiation, Sarah found herself heading to the ER last Wed afternoon.  For herself?  Oh no, not this time!  Instead, she was taking Austin in because of major stomach pains.  Turns out he needed an appendectomy!  (If you are counting, that’s TWO appendectomies in the family in just over one month.  We’re not looking for any more though!)  Thankfully Austin is recovering quite nicely, and he only missed a couple of days of school.

In other news, Sarah is finally feeling well enough to get her scrapbook/design/card-making business going, and we put together a new online order form for her the other day.  This specific order form is for custom cards.  You can check it out here: http://www.sarahrosedesigns.com/order.htm If you need a card for any occasion, Sarah is definitely the go-to girl for you!

Thank you, as always, for visiting and for praying for Sarah and the family!
