Karen's Day at Shands

Karen wanted a place for family and friends to be able to see how she is doing each day at Shands. This is how she is making that happen.

all is well and starting chemo today :)

Hi everyone!  its been a while since I have updated my site.  I am doing very well right now, and ready for the next round.  My tummy is completely better and I have been off of all the medications for a few days…so I feel great.  This is my 4th and hopefully last round of chemotherapy before I get a bone marrow transplant.  We are still working out the insurance/medicaid thing but its looking pretty good.  I’m sure I will have the transplant some time this summer unless we do something different.  we’ll keep you posted on all that.

I have had a wonderful time at home with my boys, and even got to see my older son, Randy.   It is Randy’s springbreak and he brought a few friends home with him from Harding University.   We all went to Jenks ave. Church of Christ.  Heather and her boyfriend came, and we all sat together. It was wonderful to be together to worship God.

love karen

    Karen,

    It’s great to “hear” from you again! I did see you responded to my FB post but the boys have been using the computers for FCAT practice so I didn’t get to respond. ;D I do pray the insurance/Medicaid gets worked out for your transplant — I’ve been praying and have been keeping a lot of other people praying about it, too, so hearing that it is looking promising is wonderful news. We’ll still keep praying about it, though! I’ll write more later – just thought I’d pop in and see if there was an update I hadn’t seen yet. 😀

    I love you, girlfriend!
