Dalmation hat picture



Colleen has been off the prednisone for a few days now and is beginning to feel more like herself. Her cheeks seem to be shrinking so she is also beginning to look more like herself. She is having pain in her feet not sure if this is from the spinal tap or just a side effect of the chemo. She has slept on the couch for a few nights- her feet hurt too much to walk up the steps. She is taking some morphine which eases the pain some but i guess it is still quite painful. At times she feels like they are going to come off. Not sure what this is caused from but the pain is improving each day. Her appetite is dwindling quickly. She is wearing the dalmation hat my mom bought her most of the time because her head is cold and it is made of a thicker material.She did venture out with her new wig yesterday to run a few errands with Chelsea. She has to have another spinal tap with chemotherapy on friday. Please pray that the foot pain will be relieved and that she will have added energy to get more of her homework done. She has just been too sick to do much this last few weeks.

  1. Thanks for keeping all of us updated, Sis! Thinking about all of you every day and praying, praying... praying. Her poor little feet! Just how miserable it that?!!! What an odd side effect! Love and miss you all more than I can say.
