Hello everyone,

Belated Happy Easter to you all!  We just thought we would check in with you and let you know how things are going. I had my 5th session of chemo last Thursday and have been feeling pretty good overall. Today I am feeling somewhat tired but this is the normal time for that during the cycle. I always have a few tired days during the week following the chemo treatment. I have seen a hematologist and he increased my blood thinner medications, and it does seem to be helping my leg which has the clots.

We have been really busy lately, we went to Chris' Rotary Club's Fish Fry in Woodstock on the 12th, we drove to Ajax and visited with Wendy's family on the 13th. This past weekend we were out for a fish & chip dinner on Good Friday, and we had all the kids and grandkids over for Easter dinner and an Easter Egg hunt. A good time was had by all. I will include a few pics further down.

We have also been preparing our gardens for spring planting and we have some seeds started in our mini greenhouse. We are so looking forward to spring and nice weather.

Next week is a busy week medically as I have my pre-chemo oncologist appointment and routine blood work on Monday, and chemo will take place on the following Thursday. On Tuesday of next week I go up to University Hospital for a CATSCAN to determine whether or not the chemo has had a positive effect to date, and from there they will determine whether or not to continue the chemotherapy treatments. Please keep your fingers crossed that the chemo has done some good and has shrunk the tumor.

Please keep us all in your thoughts and prayers as we can use all the help we can get. Keep in touch.



with lots of love,

Myron (& Wendy)
