Got it!

Today, Leslie did receive her chemotherapy treatment. In an email to our family she wrote, "They like for the platelets to be 100,000 and mine were 94,000. However, I found out that my white blood cells were 3,900 and they are supposed to be between 5,000 – 10,000. So, I get to get that wonderful shot again on Thursday. The one that is still making my bones hurt. It makes the bone marrow reproduce, but makes my bones really hurt. The last one was three weeks ago and I’m still hurting from that one!"

Leslie seemed to be doing well tonight, although worn out and dealing with the hot flashes. But we are another step closer to the end!

In other news, we had a storm move through Georgia early this morning that produced wind, rain, lightening, and some hail at our house. But at my brother's place in Senoia, they got hammered by some lightening pretty good. Evidently, their foundation received the brunt of it and as a result, several leaks were produced in their plumbing. It created such a mess that they had to have their water shut off at the street. I really hate this for them. They called it an "inconvenience," but there is no doubt that this episode just plain stinks! A plumber will come out tomorrow to survey the damage further and determine how to make repairs. But it looks like they are going to have to tear up the foundation to accomplish anything. So pray for them as they deal with the loss of water, ongoing repairs, and the costs that I'm sure will be a real pain.
