February 5th

Mom was able to get a special kind of MRI where she could sit instead of lay down and they imaged her on Thursday. She also got another round of Depoctye on Thursday as well.

This past weekend was rough on her. She had a lot of pain and struggled with being able to keep any food down. She also didn't sleep too well so she basically felt off all weekend.

This morning, she is feeling better and has been eating alot and keeping it all down. She will go with me or Jason on Thursday to get the R-CHOP chemo. This is the more strenuous chemo that goes throughout her entire body and wears her out. So she probably won't be feeling too well this weekend.

Mom is now staying at Rob's house so that Memaw can care for Papa at her house. Robbie hired a nurse to come in and look after mom while he and Barbara are at work. Then me, Pat and Jason take turns caring for mom on the weekends.

People have asked how they can help and where they can send money. I just want to post again that mom has a special account set up at Regions Bank:

Lindsey Kirk or Sandra Pat Henderson for the benefit of Krista Cadenhead
Last 4 digits of acct number: 7812

It is easier to find for the teller if you have them look under my name and tell them its the one that ends in 7812.

Also, for those who use paypal, she has an account set up with them as well. Just use her email address to send it: kristacadenhead@yahoo.com

Again, thanks to everyone who has helped us financially and in other ways (helping watch mom, visiting, buying her new clothes). We are tuly blessed to have such a wonderful friend network and church family to help us through this difficult time. We can't thank all of you enough.

~Lindsey
