Chemo Restart and Update 9/26/08

KK had a Dr's appointment on Monday mainly to check on his fingers and toes.. not his head and shoulders, knees and toes, just his fingers and toes :-)
Well, Everything looks great and he is healing very quickly from the side effects of the Chemo. Most importantly though he is not in any pain currently and he was even able to wear tennis shoes without pain!! He had another appointment on Thursday just for one more check up. He has a CT scan and a bone scan set for Monday. He will most liekly also start the lower dose of the chemo. Becuase it's a clinical trial, the Dr's don't know if the side effect symptoms will return, but if they do we now know the warning signs!

As for the game.....Here's what Alanna told me about that and I qutoe

......"sooooooo much fun. We met Matt Hasselbecks wife and Craig
Terrills wife. They gave us t-shirts and a book of the players. Kelton met Craig
and got his autograph and we also met Marcus Truffant. Who happens to be one of
Richards favs. Being on the field was so cool. I tried to get Kk to streak to
the 50 yard line, but you know how he likes to "obey the rules"---whatever. I
did get him to run towards the end zone and he laid flat on his back enjoying
the grass. It was all to cool. And of course I couldn't resist so I strutted
down the line and pretended I was a sea gal. I think they will be calling me
soon to ask me to join the squad. Man I was sooo good. We walk down the hall
and passed the locker room, where Richie tried to get in by slowly jogging down
the hall and ran into security...we wanted the guard to taser him but no go. We
took [a friend] with us and he took pictures so hopefully we will get to
share with everyone soon."

That's the update for now look for the pictures in the gallery soon once I get them from Alanna :-)

Next update after scans and back on Chemo next week. Have a great weekend and keep the positive energy a-flowin'! You all know that it's working and that we can TELL when you let it drop a little!! :-)
