Susan and I both agree that she is feeling much better than a week ago. Why is this the case? One explanation could be that her system was clogged up and now is unclogged due to "standard remedies." Another is that the TLK286 is actually already taking out the cancer cells that were causing the clog. I vote for the latter, but I know that it could be the former.
Today she's had a modest increase in her nutritional intake. She came up with her own blend of potatoes and carrots which she liquefied in our blender. Despite all her new found sensitivity to smells, this concoction seems pleasant to her and she's been snacking on it all day. We were also grateful for meals from Wayne & Kathy as well as Jane Willis, and vanilla ice cream from Terrie J. We've had a pretty busy day which included a two hour house cleaning by our usual crew, and then several friends who dropped by. Tonight I plan to keep her on the couch if at all possible in order to build back her energy stores for this coming week's trip to Houston. After a pretty rough week, we've seen some real answers to prayer. Once again we thank you for your intercession in our behalf.
