I AM HERE WITH BOBBIE JO AND SHE WOULD LIKE TO WRITE THE FOLLOWING TO ALL OF YOU.
THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL YOUR PRAYERS, CARDS, GIFTS AND DONATIONS. IT MEANS SO MUCH TO ME TO KNOW THAT I AM IN YOUR PRAYERS. YOUR SUPPORT MEANS EVERYTHING TO ME AND HELPS ME WHEN I AM DOWN. I DO FOLLOW YOUR COMMENTS AS WELL- I AM WORKING HARD TO GET BACK TO NORMAL, AND LOOK FORWARD TO THE BALL GAMES, PARTYS, SWIMMING AND ALL THE REALLY FUN STUFF THAT YOU ARE PART OF WITH JARED AND ME. WE CAN DO THIS TOGETHER; LOVE, BOBBIE JO

SHE IS HAVING A BIT OF A STRUGGLE TODAY. AGAIN HER PLATELETS ARE LOW AND SHE IS BEING GIVEN BLOOD. IT ALSO APPEARS THAT SHE MAY HAVE AN ULCER, HOWEVER HER BLOOD COUNTS ARE TOO LOW TO DO A SCOPE TO FIND OUT. WE ARE NOT SURE WHEN SHE WILL GET HOME AGAIN, I GUESS THIS IS ONE OF THE SETBACKS WE WERE WARNED ABOUT. BOBBIE JO IS VERY FRIGHTENED OF THE EFFECTS OF CHEMO. SHE HAS DONE WELL SO FAR, BUT THE NEXT ROUND IS SUPPOSED TO BE MUCH MORE DIFFICULT. AS HER MOM, I AM HEARTSICK WATCHING HER GO THROUGH THIS. I WANT TO SNAP MY FINGERS AND MAKE HER WELL. I FEEL HELPLESS, EVEN THOUGH I AM DOING ALL I CAN TO HELP HER. HER MARTIN IS SO SWEET AND JUST DOTES ON HER. HE IS A TREASURE, AND IF I COULD HAVE WRITTEN TO HEAVEN WITH A LIST OF ATTRIBUTES FOR A PERFECT SON IN LAW, I WOULD HAVE ASKED FOR HIM. I THINK I NEED TO BE MORE PATIENT. MY MARTIN ARE KIND OF SNIPING AT EACH OTHER. HE IS SO WORRIED, AND PERHAPS I DON'T UNDERSTAND HIS FEELINGS ENOUGH. ANYWAY, WE WILL FIND OUR WAY. HE HAS GONE TO THE CAR SHOW, AND I HOPE HE REALLY HAS FUN. HE LOVES THE CAR SHOW, (WE ALL KNOW THAT), AND LOVES IT WHEN I GO, BUT THANKFULLY THIS YEAR BECKY HAS GONE IN MY PLACE. IT IS NOT THAT I DON'T WANT TO BE WITH HIM, BUT THE CAR SHOW (YAWN!!!!!) IS NOT MY FAVORITE PLACE. ANYWAY I WOULD RATHER SPEND TIME WITH Y'ALL! SO, UNTIL TOMORROW, LOVE, NANASEE
