Good news Friday, Bad news Monday!Had Dr appt with oncologist and was ready to go back on chemo and they decided they couldn't put it in the port because of the antibiotic lock so will have to go over in the morning @ 7:30 a.m. to have a pick line put in and then back up to have the chemo pump put back on. He is not a Happy Camper and neither am I. This journey called CANCER is not FUN and we are ready for the roller coaster ride to slow down for awhile and let us coast...... They took blood three more times today and he had radiation so he is wiped out. He is up in the room sleeping.I made White Chili and have poppy seed bread in the oven. The people up in this area have never heard of poppy seed bread or our famous Chocolate Dream Dessert. I'm introducing them to a lot of new foods. Brought a few of our family cookbooks and have given some special people them. I want to leave one here in our kitchen when we leave.Tomorrow night is Pot luck supper so hope we get to go. We had to miss last week because of his infection. The Mennonite singers are going to be here again so I want Robert to hear them. He missed them the last time because he was too tired.Had a good weekend. Went to Red Wing, Mn yesterday afternoon. Todd and Deb Biel took us. That is where they make the Red Wing boots and also pottery. I didn't know they did the pottery but I had to buy me a crock. It is gray-blue with wheat on it. It is pretty and I wanted an heirloom. It will look nice upon my kitchen shelf will wheat in it.Had supper with Todd, Deb and two Amish couples. Todd's MA sent some german dish called NEFLA. It was good. I had never had anything like it. It is dough balls with meat and saurkraut. The Amish couples are so funny and we enjoyed visiting with them.Will update tomorrow.Love, Roxie

It's been a long morning. They tried to put the pick line in and after 1 1/2 hrs came out and told me they couldn't get it in so we are now in a different department with more technology to try and get it in. He has been in there for 45 min already so hopefully I will hear something soon. Then we have to go to get his chemo pump refilled and on, so he will be shot for the rest of the day. I canceled the meetings we had this afternoon as I knew he wouldn't be up to it. This has been another stressful week. Will update later when I know more. Keep the prayers coming. We just want to come home................
