CA125 CONTINUES DOWNWARD TREND

The doctor's office called today with the latest CA125 results. On 2/23/09 it is 257 down from 344 1/19/09 and 425 12/29/08 and was 295 and 293 back in November 08.

This means that Lou will have to decide whether she wants to go through the pain of another chemo March 9. The oxycontin prescription is working well for controlling the pain. It lasts 12 hours and she is sleepy most of the time. She is taking one of her vicodins tonight and last night about 7 because her back is hurting.

I got one of the church angels, Cherry Shults to stay with Lou this morning while I made my six months checkup on my cataract surgery. My right eye is a smug worse but I got my eyeglasses adjusted and I am doing better. I went by HEB to pick up more Evista for Lou. Coming home at noon I stopped at DQ and ordered a cheeseburger and small fries. At the order station she said the price was $4.95 but when she delived at the window she said it was $3.71 with my discount. I said that was a lot of discount and she said 25%. It does pay to get older at DQ.

Lou got to watch the septic tank repair through the window. Our contractor has a brand new back hoe. He will finish tomorrow.

Thanks for your many prayers.
