It's Been Awhile

Yes, we haven't updated this blog for awhile, but that doesn't mean things aren't happening. Dad has had a tough week. The latest round of chemo has left him more dizzy and shaky than others in the past. He is also very short of breath. He hasn't been taking his oxygen at home as much but doesn't think that has anything to do with his shortness of breath. Apparently the chemo is killing his red blood cells and that is what is causing his shortness of breath.
With the nice weather, mom and dad were hoping to be able to get out and do something fun this weekend. Yesterday, they went out for breakfast and to Walmart and after that dad felt he just needed to go home and rest. In walking from the car to the house he took a big spill on the asphalt. He is ok but very bruised and skinned up pretty bad on his arms and he said his shoulder hurts really bad.
With not having his plumbing business, he has started to focus on his photography. He is working on selling his pictures through various venues. He is working on a website and a few other internet outlets for his pictures. He is even talking about doing some weekend art fair type of opportunities when he is feeling better.
This week is chemo week. He says that he is going to talk to his doctor with both barrels loaded. He is hoping to get some relief for his shortness of breath and the dizziness. We'll keep you posted as the week progresses. Thank you again for your prayers.
