Today we are grateful for miracles. In preparation for Sherie's first treatment, our wonderful research coordinator, Robbyn, told us Sherie would not have to endure multiple ECG tests since she had just learned that the study drug Palifosfamide did not contribute to serious heart damage as once thought. The treatment went well as 20 year veteran nurse Michelle introduced two cancer killing drugs into Sherie's implanted smart port and she had no adverse reaction. (The battle is on!) Sherie has required less pain medicine. The thrush she discovered yesterday was reduced and virtually eliminated in her mouth today. My sweetheart was able to join me for a late lunch at Applebees in Bountiful where the food tasted reasonably good and we enjoyed each other and the moment. Importantly, the outpouring of concern and cheer from family and community has been miraculous, lifting our hearts and spirits. And we are grateful for the miracle of children and grandchildren who excel and grow under the unconditional love and help of their parents. Today was a day of miracles and tender mercies :)

I have got my poms poms here and I am cheering. I am so excited that it is going well. Miracles do happen--We need to just believe.
Sherie just want you to know that I think of you often. Keep the faith and know that you are loved by many.
