While upbeat after the news of the scans, Les has become very weak and tired again. He doesn't want to sit up in the chair much and when he does, sometimes keeping himself upright can be difficult. Chemo will go Wed - Friday with all treatments at 10am in Omaha. We're planning to celebrate his birthday tonight incase he is feeling poorly after chemo tomorrow.
The Rotarians met at the Care Center again today. This is one thing he really looks forward to. The early start isn't mom's favorite, but they are both so pleased everyone is willing to allow him to be apart of it every once in a while.
His legs are moving a little better each day. The right leg is much improved and the left foot continues to wiggle as well. Thanks again for all the positive comments on the blog, phone calls, cards, and emails. We appreciate you keeping Les in your thoughts and prayers.

We look forward to the updates and rejoice with you at the progress being made. Happy Birthday tomorrow, Les. Imagine this is not how you would want to spend the day, but keep the faith that the chemo will continue to shrink the tumors. Mila and Dean

Hi Blobaums,
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday, Les. Hope your day is going to go well. I think about you and your family everyday, which of course, includes prayers for all. Thanks to Nik for keeping everyone posted on how you are doing. We are thrilled when there is a little good news. I know its hard to stay optimistic all the time, but attitude is so important. My whole family sends their regards. Love you all, Joyce and family
I went into Great Plains to get my tanks filled for the grill. I asked about Les and she gave me this blog sight. This is so nice to have updates on how everything is going.
ReplyDeleteI was looking on previous updates and saw the picture of Les & Carolyn, she is just as beautiful as she was when she was teaching.
I believe in the power of prayer so your whole family will be on my prayer list.
I hope Les has good birthday as well. If there is anything I could do for any of you, would you please let me know?
Praying for all of you,
Sheri Buck
