Made it back to Cinci yesterday without any problems despite the "iffy" weather.
Lexie's blood counts are on the decline as expected. Clinic was rough ... lots of anticipatory nausea and vomiting. Poor girl, it's hard to see her so sick. Home health will be by to give ara-c the next three mornings. Trying to stay on top of the nausea/vomiting.
I often feel like we're just waiting for the next complication or dose of bad news to hit us. I know I've been conditioned to feel this way after all the trauma we have endured. My mind and body attempts to prepare and protect me from those horrible places so its always at my forebrain, but I'd like to shed those feeling and live without the weight of those haunting memories.
Ever since we moved to our apartment, we've been concerned about the air quality. Lots of weird smells. We had an independent contractor come to the apartment to test for mold and apparently something showed up. We were notified by our complex that the furnace and vents need to be cleaned as well as a treatment applied to the walls.
Between that and the disruptive children at all hours as well as three fire alarm incidents we've decided to move. I've been paralyzed trying to figure out what to do, but God opened a door today and enabled us to get out of our current lease and into a new apartment about 15 minutes from the hospital. We are most excited to have TWO bathrooms!
The new place is currently running a special and therefore our rent is exactly the same as our current rent! God is good and continues to faithfully provide for our needs. We will be moving next Wednesday. If anyone in the Cincinnati area would be willing to help us move either Wed or the following weekend please message me, we could use some help. I will post our new address soon!
Thank you Jenny Buddig and Chris Sizer for your generosity and compassionate hearts. We are very touched by your love and concern for our family. Please know we are SO thankful for your willingness to help us during these difficult times.
Thank you Kara Jacobs, Regina Gratz, Jane Klingenberg, the B+ Foundation and Chemo Angels for all the cards and care packages!
Also, thank you to whoever sent the Trusting God day by day devotional ... the kids opened the package and I couldn't find a name for the sender, or maybe it was meant to be anonymous, but thank you! It looks awesome!
