from Bob S.

Marti saw Dr. Mehotra (medical oncologist) yesterday. He thinks she is doing better and he is going to restart her chemo this monday. She is switching to mondays so that hopefully she can feel better by each weekend. The skin burns are 95% healed and the shingles are resolving very nicely. She is still weak and gets tired easily. She can sometimes use a cane around the house but most of the time uses a walker. Short term memory is a problem and can be somewhat frustrating. She has a appointment with Dr. Pollack on 3/22 for evaluation of how successful the radiation treatment has been. We can see that the chest mass is essentially gone, but for the right shoulder and base of the spine, she may need an MRI or CAT scan.
Barbara is leaving today and Kathleen is coming. We really appreciate the amount of time and effort that Barbara has put in to help us.
Thanks to everyone for the moral support.
Bob S.
