For those who not know, I justed wanted to let you in on whats going on. Unfortunately, my latest chemo, Spongebob, has ceased working on my cancer. My recent hospital stay and all the treatments I have had have really hurt my liver. I can not do any more harsh chemos. I just started one last Thursday to hopefully keep the liver tumor stable. The last couple of months have really been hard to be my independent self in Raleigh. So my family and my doctor all decided last week that I need to be in New Bern to get some help. Dr. Crane also wants me to transfer to a New Bern oncologist so I will have local care and not have to go back and forth weekly for chemo. We are in the process of doing that now. I am just moving items that will make me feel like I am at home. I hope to one day get back to living in the town I have called home for 20 years.
No one knows what tomorrow or the future holds. So we are just taking it day by day. Just like we have done since my first diagnosis in 2006. I think living in New Bern will help me learn how to rest. Sailing, the river, and the beach can't hurt either. Its been a really hard month but with the help of my family, friends, and doctors, I am feeling a little better.
Please continue with the emails, texts, and calls. If I don't respond right away, I will try and get back to you as soon as I can. Also, please remember to donate or buy any item with a pink ribbon on it. Hopefully one day they will find a cure for breast cancer.
Thank you for all your prayers. Please keep them coming!
Love, Jennier

Jenn - Sounds like a good move to be near family. I know you will get some much needed R & R there. Glad to hear that you are feeling better. My prayers are with you.
