Nancy - it's great to hear from you! This disease really sucks, but it is really important that we endure.
Wendy - thanks for the post. And you're right - do I ever do anything quietly?
Mish - yes, please shave off all of Parker's beautiful hair and send it to me. Just kidding!
Gretch - thanks for all the positive vibes.
Thanks to everyone who has called and kept me in their prayers!
I'm ready to embark on my third day of chemo. I hear this is when it gets really bad. As if the vomiting and lack of sleep is not bad enough. But, I'm going to beat this, so all I have to say is BRING IT ON!

Hang in there, Jen. You will have a surprise coming your way from your family in Columbus mid-week. Hope you are feeling better soon. Enjoy spending time with your Mom and Greg today. Lots of love,
Gretchen and kids
Dear Jenette
I am praying for you and sending healing thoughts.
Love you,
Mom H
Jen -- you are becoming my daily "fix" ... not a bad thing tho. I just finished the solumedrol 3-day treatment yesterday. A great relief of the pain. Hang in there. Maybe the 3rd day of chemo won't be THAT bad. I'll be thinking of you .... I'll send you non-puking vibes!! Hope it works! Does TylonolPM help with sleep? I think it is the wonder drug for sleep lately. Maybe it'll help you relax a bit. I will look for your progress tomorrow. Luv u girl!!!!
Since you are one of the 2 or 3 toughest Bitches I know, I have no doubt that when you are done kicking MS' ass, you will come kick mine; or at least I hope you will, because that means you have to come visit to do it.
We love you both, and can't wait for you to get better and come out East to visit NYC. You will be in our thoughts and prayers until we see you again.
Love,
Jim, Nicole & Isabella
OK Jenette, I am officially a computer spaz! I have been getting kicked off this site and not able to leave you one message. Then I tried calling you and a strange woman answered the phone (no, not Mom!) Oh well, I finally made it and I hear you're doing great. I also hear you're peeing a lot. I still go 2 or 3 times each night as if I just drank a gallon of water in my sleep (I think I would have remembered that!)Just consider it your exercise. Ab crunch to sit up and side leg swings to get your feet on the floor, quads to lift your butt off the bed and hammies to walk back and forth to the potty! Do you you have to wear a lovely hospital gown with the great ventilation system? They are so fashionable... everyone is wearing them these days (we're going to start a trend.) I know I said that I would leave you alone if you wanted or needed but I want you to know that I would be more than glad to come visit you after work on any given Friday. I can leave about 3pm so just say the word... I'll grab a green tubing and be there before you can say "pec flys" (I know you want to work out... I miss our sessions big-time.) Remember that I can come to your house and work with you as soon as you get home (or shortly thereafter.) I'll call you tomorrow. Take care tonight! You're almost there!
Lots of love, Jean
