Thursday December 10th

I did not get around to blogging yesterday. It was a fairly good day for Dave....they are warding off the side effects, but at times his body throws all of us a curve and doesn't react with the predictability that we have come to expect! Fever got to about 105 last night, but our nurse Marlon (he is THE BEST!!! we love him)....put Dave on a cooling blanket and that seemed to bring the fever down more quickly. I stayed the night with Melanie and Larry (and Murphy my therapy dog)....they had really yummy pizza, Caesar salad, lite beer and birthday cake for me, it just doesn't get any better than that!! Cayte had gotten me a really soft warm blanket from Bath and Body works and Mel got me the bath robe to go with it. As we were eating pizza the UPS guy came and brought a gift from Kip and LeeAnn (probably mostly LeeAnn ....HAHA) and it was a fun plaque and my favorite candy bar...Almond Joy and a card...she sent Dave a Golf magazine, probably the ONLY one without articles about dear Tiger.....it was really a special birthday because of the effort that these friends put into making it normal....So as of today I am proudly 58....I can say that I have two great kids, a wonderful husband that after 25 years I would marry again in a heartbeat, and the most fantastic friends that a person could ever want....
