Time for an update. I have been having major pain for a long time so now I am seeing a pain mangement doctor. I saw him the day before we were going to Charlotte and he ordered some new & stronger medication. Unfortunately, I couldn't tolerate it and was nauseated the whole time I was on it. The drive to Charlotte was not pleasant as I was lying down sick in the back seat for eight hours. It was great seeeing Shawn, Jen, & Cooper, though. Anyway, I will be having an MRI on Monday and then make some decisions for pain injections based on the results. Maureen, thanks in advance for coming with us. I know Alan enjoys your moral support. Carole, thanks for the gift card. Your cards always make me laugh. I especially liked the amount of people you vacationed with...hilarious. Shawn, Jen & Cooper are coming home next weekend. Yay! I got to go to two of Karlynn's games and watch her cheer. She is just beautiful... and I am NOT biased :) So, this week is fairly quiet, some blood work, an MRI & a visit to the oncologist on Friday. Gregg, it was good to see you & Debbie. I hope your flight back to Texas was smooth. Stay cool down there. Happy Labor Day, Linda
