Halloween was great last night at Tammy & Joey Culmone's. The kids dressed up in their costumes and Angela tagged along in her wheel chair. The kids actually got tired before Angela did. The nausea seems to be a lot better now. She is only taking one nausea pill at noon before taking the chemo drug.
She is now moving her ankle about 30% and her toes are her next target. They're at about 10%. She is doing great in therapy and working hard...about 2 hours a day! She is actually walking a little bit around the house without me. I'm having to get on her a little bit about that....but for someone with her mindset (stubborn)...not to mention that I'm her husband...translation...I'm talking to the "wall".
Today she tried to do radiation treatment ("the mask") without taking an anxiety pill before her session. She made it through the session but she was definitely traumatized by it. I think tomorrow she go back to taking the anxiety pill to take the edge off. Today I saw a grown man twice her size walk out saying "I just can't do it."
Thanks again to everyone for your prayers, support and of course the delicious food! Excuse the poor grammar and all the "....." but with 3 kids and someones yummy lasagna baking in the oven..... you'll have to give me a pass

David & Angela,
Thank you so much for keeping us posted. I check the blog every day and try to pray specifically based on its contents. Wish we were closer so we could help. I'm thankful for all the "hands" that are close by. PLEASE let us know how we can help.
Lord, please wrap your arms around Angela especially during the radiation and give her a tranquility as she continues to be so courageous. Be with David and the children as they make this journey together. Thank you Lord for helping hands. In His Name, Amen
Sorry, forgot to sign the last post!

Praise You in This Storm by Casting Crowns
I’ll praise You in this storm
And I will lift my hands
For You are who You are
No matter where I am
Every tear I’ve cried
You hold in Your hand
You never left my side
And though my heart is torn
I will praise You in this storm
I love the photos. I am so happy you got to get out and enjoy your crew, ACK!!! Talk to ya soon.
Love,
Lowry
