Day 8-not so great
It is only noon, and today has already been difficult. Stan is experiencing quite a bit of pain---muscle spasms in his spine and what seems even more upsetting to him ,is that he is confused. Some of his blood counts have come up just a little and the Doctors say that the pain is often indicative of the new cells working and that this is a good sign. (from my point of view--it is very hard to see my husband in any pain). The other good news is that because there has been this slight increase in platelets,red blood cells and white blood cells, they have taken him off his neupigen(sp?) shots (which were to stimulate new cell growth). He is resting now---hopefully he'll be in less pain when he awakens.

Stan: I talked to Leslie last night regarding your severe back pain. She can fill you in on our conversation. Hopefully today it is better. Probably your counts are starting to rise which is a good thing. The next few days will be hard but you can do it. Leslie will help you get through it as will your capable staff. Rest and know you are in our prayers.
Trust in the Lord with all your might and lean not on your own understanding. Acknowledge Him in all your deeds and He will direct your path.
