Ted had an appointment yesterday at the bone marrow clinic. Next week is a week of driving over an hour each way, everyday....so Ted can get chemo infusions for maintenance. We were not expecting this just yet. His counts go up and down. His kidneys did perfect for a week without the cyclosporine. ..Now he is back on that med. Please keep us in your prayers. Thank you so much.
We will be going to a family outing at my daughter Angie's for the 4th. It will be good to get hugs and see the little ones. I miss them all. Ted has his days. One day good ,next day feeling low. The dr. says it's normal what he is going thru.
Wishing all of you lots of fun family moments this week. Bless you. XO
So sorry for all of your difficulties. I will keep Ted in my prayers. Happy 4th. xo Laura
ReplyDeleteThank you Laura. So thankful for the prayers. Technology just make me pull my hair out. LOL. Just when I get my computer like I want it...they upgrade. Hope you are doing well and not too hot there. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteIllness is a long road, full of hills and valleys, bumps and curves. Thank God He is with us through it all. Prayers continue!
ReplyDeleteThank you sweet girl. I am so grateful for prayers and our heavenly Father's mercy. It is wonderful when Ted has a good day. Later today we had till we cried over nothing. Needed to laugh i guess. Blessings to you and yours, happy 4th. xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, I'm sorry your computer was not working and you lost your pictures. But if you're going to put up old pictures, this one is definitely one to use. I LOVE IT! It's perfect for the Fourth of July, and those painted vases are so cool. They look pretty with the red flowers. I'm sorry Ted has bad days, and I am keeping you both in my prayers. It will be nice to go to Angie's house and visit with the family. I just got lots of hugs from Francesca last weekend, and it sure does a grandma good.
ReplyDeleteWishing you a pleasant Fourth of July at your daughter's house, Susie.
love you, girl.

Thank you so much Sheri. I have missed everyone. Being stuck in our house due to Ted's illness and the heat now, I have needed the computer for a stress reliever . Oh I am looking forward to the hugs and kisses from our little ones. Blessings to you and yours, enjoy the 4th. Love you , xoxo, Susie
DeleteI imagine both of you must have your days, dear Susie. And computer problems don't help at all. I hope you get all your pictures and info back somehow. And please know that Ted's name is still on my kitchen cabinet where I see it every day to remind me. Our neighbor's wife's name is now on it too as she is beginning treatment for breast cancer. I hope you both have a good Fourth visiting your family. I'm sure you will have some good food.
ReplyDeleteLove to you,
Dewena
Dewena, I will pray for your neighbor also. The more prayers the better I say. Thank you so very much for your prayers for Ted, they mean alot to us. Blessings for a fun 4th. xoxo, Susie
DeleteAfter I updated to a new iPhone, I lost so many things. One was a recorded message from John that I treasured. It’s been a few weeks, but when I checked it was back. Phew. I need to make a copy or something. Hope that your troubles are solved and resolved, too.
ReplyDeleteI am also sorry that anyone must have daily chemo infusions with all the travel involved. May it all go very well indeed. Keeping you both tucked in my prayers. Better, brighter days are coming! Have a wonderful 4th with your family. Those hugs and kisses will be like vitamins.
Thank you so much Vee. I am glad you got the recording of John's voice. I know that meas so much to you. I like hearing my mom's voice in old videos. Thank you for the prayers...we need them and appreciate them. Yes, praying the chemo does what it is to do to keep Ted going for the marrow to grow healthy .So much to this transplant thing we did not know about. I have read the book they gave us many times and still am surprised. Blessings to you sweet girl, xoxo, Susie
DeleteAlways sucks going back to square one.
ReplyDeleteHonestly Adam, I am wondering about the local Geeks. LOL I begged them to restore my ability to load photos. I can't find it . Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI will keep praying for you. And I hope that all of Ted's days will be good. xx
ReplyDeleteBlessings on you, sweet Susie and your sweet Teddy bear. xx
Thank you Kay. I love getting the prayers for us. The more the better I say. I want to be on the Healthy side of this battle. :) Blessings , xoxo, Susie
DeleteSusie, I am thinking of you and praying that Ted has all better days. It will come but I don't imagine it will seem soon enough. Take care and thanks for your visit..Happy 4th with your family..xxoJudy
ReplyDeleteThank you Judy. I am grateful for the prayers and well wishes. Oh yes, I long for all good days here. I get my hopes up so often, then there's set backs. Blessings to you and your Captain. xoxo, Susie
DeleteWe also have a family outing on the 4th. We're looking forward to it and wanting to see everyone but there's that scare about Steve's immune system and chemo. You and Ted are both in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you Connie. You both are in my prayers also. I know what you mean about the immune system worries. Ted counts are high now and I don't have to worry as much....but I do. He will wear his mask and avoid the babies. Which is hard, he loves to talk to them and hear what they say. Blessings for a fine day and not too tiring. xoxo, Susie
DeleteI'm sorry to hear about your computer difficulties Susie. Keeping you and Ted in my prayers.
ReplyDeleteThank you Pilar. I am not a tech person, so any problems with computers makes me crazy. LOL. I am grateful for the prayers my friend. Wishing you a happy 4th with loved ones near. Blessings,xoxo, Susie
DeleteWe just can't hardly live without the computers these days, hope yours works good now. I will be praying for you and Ted as you go thru more treatments. Enjoy your 4th with the family! Sending HUGS and PRAYERS your way!
ReplyDeleteThank you for all those prayers and hugs. We are going to enjoy today with family. Ted will love talking with the fellows of the family. He also loves to hear what the little kids say about things. Maybe Layla will tell us stories. :) Blessings to you and your family, xoxo, Susie
DeleteOf course you are in my prayers and wishing Ted good luck on his treatments. I hope he's feeling well enough you can all be together o nthe 4th.
ReplyDeleteThank you Jeanie. I hope all is going well with you. It will be nice to be around family again. Ted's counts are high enough , but he will wear his mask and use the hand sanitizers. Wishing you a great day. Blessings sweetie, xoxo, Susie
DeleteI pray that tomorrow will be one of Ted's best....enjoy your family! I'm sure they are ready to love on you two!! Prayers continue.
ReplyDeleteUgh to the computer issues. Can't live without them but sometimes we would love to pitch the thing out the window ☺
Doris, I agree about the computers. LOL. Thank you for the good wishes and prayers. I hope your day is filled with laughter and hugs. Blessings to all, xoxo, Susie
DeleteYou are a trouper and have been through so much this past year! Prayers for your computer to be restored and your pictures back!
ReplyDeleteEarnest prayers for you and Ted and those daily trips which are so energy draining when your energy levels are already stretched thin. Always thinking if and praying for you with love......
Thank you my sweet friend. I am so ready for family time. You know what I mean. You are a family person too. Ted is doing well this week. He may get tired today, we have not had much company since he's been home. His counts are high and he will wear his mask . Not be hugging the little ones probably...but I sure will. I miss them all. Oh our computer is a mess even after 260 dollars. I am disappointed in our Geeks. But I need a computer to help me escape my bad days. Blessings to all of you there in Texas. Love you so much, xoxo, Susie
DeleteAwwww sweet Susie, you and Ted sure have been through it this year, I am surely keeping you both in my thoughts and prayers! Enjoy the 4th with your family xoxoxo
ReplyDeleteHi Debbie, Our fourth was great fun and good food. We had a long day, but could not stick around for any fireworks. Ted watch the Macy's show on TV. I went to bed early. He has done well. I have had no desire to try things on this computer , mainly because I don't know where to start. Maybe get one of the grands or my daughter to come help me. Hope you are getting nicer weather there and enjoying your gardens. Blessings, xoxo, Susie
Deletehi there girlfriend, glad to see you had been by. I love those pretty flowers in the painted jars! How is Ted doing? and any luck with your computer? I hope Ted felt well enough to enjoy a nice holiday with y'all yesterday
ReplyDeleteDebbi, We had a wonderful 4th with all the children. I was wore out early from the heat. There was lots of fun with family. Enjoyed the little fellows so much. I am not sure what to do about this computer just yet. May take it back to the Geeks. Stay cool there if you can, be safe.Blessings, xoxo, Susie
DeleteMissed this post, Susie...sorry to hear about the computer issues. They really can drive a person nuts. Hopefully you can get it where you need it again.
ReplyDeleteI'm sure it is quite normal for Ted to have the ups and downs...it sounds like he has a great medical team staying on top of things! So glad you were able to enjoy the 4th! Sending prayers...xo
I came here to comment because I love the red white and blue containers of flowers. that is truly sad about the hard drive. and the lost info. hope your hubby is doing better now, it has been 3 weeks since this post
