On Lisa's last day in town Saturday, the girls all met up at a family favorite restaurant in Scottsdale called Los Olivos. The lunch bunch included my Mom, Traci, Lisa, Marsha, Grammy (Charlene), Great Grandma (Ann), Delaney, Mia and me. It was a beautiful, sunshiny day with Spring Training fans milling all over downtown Scottsdale and our crazy bunch joking, laughing, reminiscing and just enjoying each others' company. What I enjoyed most was watching everyone interact and knowing that those moments of simple happiness are the moments that will help mom get through her upcoming treatment. And since pictures are worth a thousand words, I will spare everyone the additional words and give you the pictures from the fun afternoon.
As for the treatment schedule, Mom will be starting chemo this week, no later than Friday. I will post more when I know more. It is likely that she will go in and have a "port" put in near her collarbone to make it easier and less painful for the nurses to administer the chemo drugs as well as any other IV treatment she may need as she is going through the process. I will be sure and update everyone when I have additional information.
