I'm not going to lie. This has been a hard week. We've settled into a routine, we're over halfway done, but we're not close enough to feel relief. The treatments are accumulating in Cara's system. All that adds up to Cara feeling miserable. She hurts, she's really tired, she can't always relax so that she can rest.
We talked to the Dr. today and he is giving her a day off tomorrow. She'll appreciate the break, although it will extend the treatments into Monday, Aug. 23.
Some good news--Lexi is back from Pennsylvania. She got to go to the beach and the theme park in Hershey--I forgot to ask if she could smell the chocolate. She spend some good time with Uncle Evan and Aunt Jenny as well as the other housemates--Ben (who's actually coming back to Kansas to go to school at Washburn) and Jeff and his girlfriend, Audrey.
This Sunday, August 15 is Cara's 31st birthday. We have tickets to see Beauty and the Beast at Starlight, an outdoor ampitheater in Swope Park here in KC. The heat (it's been 100 or so every day for a couple of weeks) is supposed to break, so it should be a lovely evening.
I hope you all have a wonderful weekend. This will all be over soon and we will be able to go on to new adventures!
