She went back to the hospital last night for her third round of chemo. They did a bunch of tests today, an mri, another bone scan, and put something like a port in that is external. She was a bit grouchy because she would rather be home, but other than that she is ok. Hopefully we will know some of the test results tonite, and she will most likely start the chemo late tonite, or in the morning. That is all for now.....

Update

First i want to apologize because i am a terrible blogger, and will try and blog more often. Mom is doing ok, she will go on monday for her final round of chemo. She has had some problems with her port, and it was removed yesterday. During her stay in the hospital for her next chemo session they will do another bone scan. This will tell us how much, if any, the chemo has helped to shrink some of the tumors. Today at her doc appt they upped her pain patch so hopefully she will not be in as much pain. After her appointment she went to the casino for a short amount of time and enjoyed herself. Tonight she went to the concert in the park for a short time and then came to the house to visit me and the kids. She was in good spirits, and did not complain of back pain while she was in her chair as she has been doing previously. She was showing off her new hair, and was looking good.
