Made it to Thursday !

Things are looking up ! Marky is feeling better !

Sam is back to eating Doritos and Crunchberries !

All is right with the world !

Marky had a Dr.s appointment with his specialist from
PCMC yesterday. They took some blood, looked him over
and declared that he was doing great (as far as they can
tell !) .

James accompanied him to the Dr., while I had to work. The
Doc,(Dr. Pohl) said Marky will have to receive
the Methatrexate (chemo stuff) shots once a week for A YEAR
or TWO !, but the Remicade infusion therapy stuff that he gets every 6-8 wks will taper off, as well as the steroids.

He also said they would schedule another GI scope thingy to
look down into his stomach lining and biopsy to see how the
"crud" looks sometime in the summer !

and.....AUNT LORI HAS SHINGLES !!!WHAT THE.....? ? ?

If you guys have never seen shingles or watched someone suffer with it....well lets just say it's PURE PAIN and TORTURE ! She CANT be sick and afflicted ! She's a key
component in the "keep the Jeanes' going team" !

Shingles is an evil thing that attacks a nerve pathway and
terrorizes everything in proximity to that nerve. It shoots
relentless pain for days. Then errupts into clusters of blister type stuff that kills ! It is a virus remnant of
Chicken pox, that lays dormant in wait for just the right
levels of stress and lack of immunity....and then...IT ATTACKS !

So, she is on the Jeanes' prayer roll. Put her on yours, if you would.

Love Markysmom, Sammysmom, Scottysmom, and Loristwin
