We broke her out, Becca made it home (her parents home)! At about 6pm tonight they finally allowed us to take her out the door 🙂 We have to go back up there for some medicine tomorrow afternoon, but she wanted to go home rather than spend another night in the hospital just for that. The boys were thrilled to see her. Little Michael asked us if she was able to spend the night tonight… it was precious.

So now we will have a nurse come by the home each day, as well as PT & OT. In the next few days we should be able to take her to therapy in a clinic, rather than in the home. I went to fill the medication tonight, boy was that fun 🙂 It’s amazing how easy it is to get medicine in the hospital, but getting it filled outside is a mess… but it’s worth the trade off just to have her home!

Out of all the side effects of the chemo, I would take exhaustion over the rest. Becca has had very little nausea, which seems to be a gift. She had several visitors today, which she enjoyed. Some were blasts from the past, others were family. It seems to help her get through the routine of hospital life.

50 days is a long time, who would have thought? It seems all a blur to me. We still have a long road and we will continue to rely on a lot of friends and family. I am very grateful for the love and generosity of so many. I know I have written this before, but Sunday seems to be a day of recollection and reflection. We are so truly blessed. A very close friend of mine asked me today about the tag line on the top of the page. It reads, “Our journey through the blessings of Cancer, the power of Prayer, and Faith in our Father in heaven.” I feel strongly that this has been a blessing. With great trials come great victories. Our family is closer than ever. My faith in my Father in heaven is eternal. With faith and prayer we can overcome obstacles. I, like my father-in-law, feel that my glass is half full. There is always a small light somewhere and we can’t sweat the small stuff as life is too short. Please keep your family close and do those things that keep getting pushed aside.

Please keep up the prayers 🙂

I was able to take the boys to see Becca again today. They enjoy the opportunity to visit with her, even if it’s not a long time. Saturday seems to be the best day for everyone. She was teary-eyed and grateful for the visit.

We do have good news, we are 99% sure they will release her on Monday to be able to go home! So, until the next treatment (three weeks), she can stay with us now at my in-laws. We will have some home PT & OT come in, but they think she is strong enough and ready to do it. We are all so excited and thankful for the blessing, after so many long days, to bring her back to the house.

So for now, continue praying for her. She is in good spirits, but still very tired. Anyone that would like to visit will need to keep in mind she really doesn’t have an immune system. Don’t be alarmed if we turn it into a mini hospital with face masks and antibacterial wash 🙂 But trust me, any visits are good for her.
