DOCTOR 2:00PM

I called Terry Joe this morning and he thought Delight rested a little better last night. She hasn't been resting good at night. He said that she gets up several times a night and gets in the bathtub to try to relieve the pain.

He said that she was getting around slowly this morning.

Her appointment with the doctor was 2:00 today. I asked him to call us and let us know what the doctor said.

When I hear anything I'll post.

FEELING BETTER

Tonya & I went out for a short visit at lunch today. She said that she was feeling much better today. She thinks the reason why she hasn't been feeling well is due to her sinus problem. It has moved down into her chest. Dr. Salyer gave her some antibiotics yesterday. She looked really good to me. Her color was good and she talked & laughed with us. The only thing is she doesn't have much strength.

She has an appointment with Dr. Engstrom tomorrow. Terry Joe will be taking her.

PRAY

Terry Joe just called to report to us that Delight wouldn't be able to come to work today. He said that she hasn't been dressed or out of the house all weekend except for when she thought she had to got to Wal Mart last night. She only lasted about 10 minutes and then she had to go to the car.

He has a call in to Dr. Salyer this morning about her sinus problem.

If anyone needs to talk to Delight please call Terry Joe on his cell phone and he will get her the message. 286-8941. She is not feeling well enough to talk right now.

Please Pray for God to strengthen Delight's body.

SO SLEEPY

Delight didn't come to work today until after she had her blood work done. She said she really didn't want to come she just wanted to go home and go to bed. She feels very tired. But she looks so good today!!!! The only thing that keeps me believing that she is sick is the fact she has no hair.

The DELIGHT-O-METER is staying at a 8 1/2 today. I told her what I was going to put the meter at and she said that high?? I said yes because you look so good.

I'm always glad to see her come to work. She needs to come because we need her to be here with us. She WANTS to come she just told me. Anyway she has been her a couple of hours and she has worked all she can. She is going home.

FEELING BETTER

Delight was able to come to work today even though she didn't get much rest last night. She looks really good but is still weak. I was glad to see her today!!!

DELIGHT-O-METER is at a 8 1/2 today.

She doesn't have to go to Texarkana tomorrow for her blood work. Dr. Salyer's office is going to be able to do it for her. I'm glad they are able to do it. That will save her from having to drive.

She was able to go eat with us today at lunch. Everyone was glad to see her out and about.

She went to the Masonic Lodge last night to pick up her check and have her picture taken with them. They told her that her fund raiser was the biggest one that they had ever done. They gave her a check for $3,000.00. Thank you Idabel Masonic Lodge for all of your hard work!!!!! They did a wonderful job.

She was able to get her massage yesterday. It was WONDERFUL!!!! It felt so good to her. It was so wonderful that she scheduled another one next week!!! She said that it made her feel so much better.

She just left work and I told her that I hadn't even finished her blog today!! She told me I better get busy and get it done.......so she is feeling better!!

Have a good day

SLEEPY & TIRED

Delight decided not to come to work today. When I called her this morning she was still asleep. She called back in about 30 minutes and said she was so tired that she could hardly wake up. She is supposed to get a massage at 3:00 today. She is hoping to still go do that. Tonight she is supposed to go to the Masonic Lodge and get her picture taken and pick up her check from that fund raiser.

Continue to pray extra for Delight.

SHE'S HERE

Delight came to work today feeling really draggy. She is having to take several pain pills. After I dropped her off Friday she said that she slept the rest of the day. She slept all day Saturday. She was able to go to church on Sunday but that really tired her out so she rested the rest of the day. She did say that the pain this time is nothing like it was last time. (it is not near as bad) The pain is mostly in her right leg.

DELIGHT-O-METER is going to be at a 8 today. She looks really good...but just doesn't have much energy.

Say a extra prayer for Delight today.

SHOT DAY

I just got back from taking Delight to get her shot. This morning when I picked her up she said that she was very tired and sleepy. She slept on and off on the way to Texarkana. After she got her shot she wanted to go look at some shoes Lisa had told her about. Since she is having trouble with her legs and feet she has to wear comfortable shoes. We went to the mall and she was able to get her a pair of the sandals. Hopefully, these sandals will help. We had a couple more short stops and then we stopped at Chick-fil-a. Then back to Idabel. Delight went home to take a nap and I headed back to work. She seemed like she felt better coming home. Maybe she can rest this weekend.

Have a good weekend everyone

TREATMENT DAY

Delight had to leave work a little earlier than she expected yesterday. She got to feeling bad all of a sudden. Last night when she called to tell me she wasn't coming to work today she sounded a lot better. I think she just needed to go home and rest. Everyone knows how Delight is.......she just wants to keep going and going and going without resting.

If I hear anything from her later..... I will post again.

GREAT MOTHER'S DAY

DELIGHT-O-METER is a 10 today!!

Delight is great after her wonderful Mother's Day weekend!!!! She looks like a million dollars today. She had quite the weekend. She enjoyed getting to see Blu, Jennifer and Kaylee.


I hear that Terry Joe, Blu and Riley had a rodeo going on at the Eidson Ranch??? Maybe next time they can sell tickets.

Saturday evening they were able to spend time at David Beard's with Theron & Johnice and on Sunday with Delight's mother and extended family. She had a full weekend of family functions. She was so glad that she felt well enough to enjoy everything that went on.

Remember Delight this week in your prayers. She has another chemo treatment on Thursday. Probably another shot on Friday.......the doctor didn't tell her yes or no on the shot yet.

GOOD NEWS

Delight called around 5:45 this afternoon with GREAT news from the doctor. Everything had shrunk!!!!! Her marker count was at 30.3. (down again) Her white blood count was normal. The doctor wanted to know if she was up to going on with her treatments?? Of course she said!! He still would not give her an estimate on how many more treatments she would have to take.

Tomorrow I will not be around to post. Sorry. I have given you enough GOOD news today to last you until Monday.

We are proud of you DELIGHT. You are the GREATEST!!!!!! Keep up the good work!!! You can beat this sickness.

Everyone have a HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!!!!!!!!!

TODAY----- TEST RESULTS

Delight didn't come to work today. She over did the past couple of days at work. She has been on her feet almost constantly. So this morning she stayed home and slept. She said that she went to bed last night at 10:45 and didn't wake up until 10:00 this morning.

She is supposed to be at the doctors office this afternoon at 2:20. She will be finding out about her CT & MRI scans. I think she had a lot of questions for the doctor today. They will also be doing blood work, checking her white blood count.

Jennifer & Blu are coming in Saturday morning for the weekend. Delight is looking forward to them coming since last time she wasn't feeling so well.

After I talk to Delight this afternoon I'll post. It maybe later than normal, but I'll get some information posted sometime late this afternoon.

TESTS WERE ROUGH

Delight called and said she was feeling okay. She was going to try to come to work around 12:00 but she has not made it yet. She has developed a cold. I tried to encourage her to stay at home and rest.

The scans that she took yesterday took a lot out of her. She was unable to take any pain medication until the test where over. She said it was rough. As soon as she got done with the tests she was able to get something to eat and take her medicine. She slept all afternoon when they got home. She had a good night last night. She went to bed at 9:30 and she said that she didn't wake up until 8:00 this morning. That's the first good rest at night she has had in a long time.

Delight will be getting the results from the tests next Thursday.

Please remember Delight & her family in your prayers.

GOOD NEWS

Delight is at work today looking GOOD!!! Her legs are still bothering her really bad but overall is feeling a WHOLE lot better!!

Everyone was so excited to see her smiling face. She still didn't get a lot of sleep last night. She has been up since 4:00am. She was hoping getting up out of the bed and out of the house would make her feel better.

Keep those prayers going for Delight.

I still haven't talked to Delight. It's about 2:30pm. I'm not going to call again and bother her. I know that she would have called me if she felt like it.

We were out eating at lunch and we saw Terry Joe. He came over and said that he was picking up them some food. He said he wasn't for sure how she was feeling because she was still in the bed when he left.

Anyway that's all I know. We are going to start taking food again, at least until she is feeling a better. If you are interested in taking food contact Tonya at 286-7656. Her home phone is 286-1102. She will be keeping up with the schedule. We don't want them to be overloaded with to much food at one time so Tonya is going to be keeping the schedule. Thanks, Lisa, for cooking tonight. Thanks to everyone who will be cooking in the future. I know that they appreciate it very much.

As soon as I hear anything else, I'll post.

Kaye
I called to talk to Delight just now and Terry Joe was home. Delight was sleeping. He said that she got some different pain medicine and he thought it helped with the pain but it kept her up all night. He didn't know how she felt this morning because she was still asleep. He said he would call and let us know when he found out something.

I'll post again when I hear back from Terry Joe.
