September 2013

    Hi. I am on Sara's computer at the purple house. Way over my head here. {McIntosh} Anyway, just getting back on here to update everyone. Sara has been getting intravenous chemo since the beginning of August. She is in Seattle now doing her third treatment.  Shanna came to Sandpoint to stay here and take excellent care of her {and vacuum the crap outta the purple house..} Sara was pretty much in bed and still is because this chemo is kicking everyone's ass. This cancer is really getting irritating and we are  just about over it.  Sara is going to Brazil to John of God as soon as she is able. This is okay with Dr. Lin.
    Big kudos to Amber Kohal today for delivering to Seattle Sara's chemo that was here and Dr. Lin wanted her to start on it again. It had to be refrigerated and kept cold all the way there and Amber performed like a pro. Considering she and her Dad run the Flying Fish Company in Sandpoint on 5th avenue, refrigeration and travel does not scare her.
     Lauren is still doing acupuncture on Sara. She is now treating her for the mutation of the cancer cells.  The cancer mutates way faster than any treatment can keep up with it. It is a horrible monster and right now Sara, even though she is Wonder Woman, is trying to fight Superman all by herself. Time to bring out the big guns. We need all the good vibes and energy coming this way. Right now. We are so close to finally Kicking some major behind.  Send lightning strikes.
       Which also brings up the second annual Dalebout Kicking Cancer's Ass Hoedown on November 9th in Sandpoint. Proceeds going to the CCS in Sandpoint that helps so many people.  T shirts are on order.
    I will be back on here updating the blog. Big thanks to everyone who has pitched in to help. And big TU to Gail Lyster for walking the dogs every morning to wear them out. That was a huge help. It was pretty chaotic for a while here, and it certainly kept Sara distracted from being sick.  My sister Shannon drops by and laundry is done, dishes are done and there is a jar of homemade jelly on the counter. Other sister, Lois, runs for scripts and does errands. Sara has way too many people that LOVE her SO much.  I love her the most and and glad I bought her that Christmas Barbie at the White Elephant in Spokane when she would not leave the store without it.  Costs us $14 bucks. Don't worry, we still have it.
    Stay tuned here.
    Thanks everyone!!
