Time Flies By! A lot has happened this time! The election took a lot of our time and turned out LOUZY in my estimation! When I went for the chemo--I learned that I have not had the chemo for the last 2 times. The Dr. cut it off and added an IV called Zometa--to help strengthen the bones, especially the spine. I got the second one on Mon., Feb 4. I get it every 4 weeks and the Herceptin, (an anti-bacterial IV to keep from getting every bacteria I come in contact with), I get every 3 weeks! They keep Dad and I busy! They each give me a little trouble on the day after! BUT, that's "Life"! This has been a "good" week, if the shingles nerves would just settle down, I'd be NORMAL (well, almost!)!!
I emailed the testimony of Pres. Hinkley's son, Elder Richard (of the Q. of 70), to all of you. When I read it I found that Pres. H. and I have had something in common for the last 2 yrs. or so! He asked his Drs. the very same questions I did at first and got the very same answers! His first chemo was a lite dose as mine was, and was about the same time. I can really feel what it would be like to be 17 years older and take that last chemo treatment he had. I described mine as "3 semi trucks running over me"! Can you imagine, what it would be for a 97 yr. old man? The Lord knew what he would be going thru and called him Home just on time!! Bless Him!! He was--and IS--so Special! I need to go get some letters in the mail, so this will have to end! All of you take care, know we love you, come see us--or give us a call, and above all, KEEP UP THE "GOOD" WORKS! Grandma, Mom, or ? !!

Thanks for your update. It's good to hear from you and get a little clearer idea of what's happening. I thought the same thing when I saw Richard Hinckley's testimony - Pres. Hinckley has had the same experience you've had. We are all prayerful that the shingles can be a thing of the past for you. Hang in there - we love you.
