DAY FOUR

For those of you who don't know, hemoglobin is that part of the blood that carries oxygen to the tissues and oxygen helps with energy. Terry's drugs are knocking her hemoglobin down (to be expected) yet the docs still want her to walk, walk, walk. She did the same number of laps today (16) as yesterday but they were laborious. She is pushing herself! I am proud of her.
Funny thing---Terry's hair is now coming in mostly black. Kind of sexy! Her Dad had black hair, when he had hair.
We had a nice surprise today, a group called the Arbor Consort were caroling throughout the cancer wards. They were dressed in period costumes and sang victorian holiday carols. What a nice treat. They blended in perfect pitch.

Glad she is doing better and pushing herself. It could get her home quicker. And we pray the good days out number the bad days.
Continued prayers for you all and we are planning to come see her sometime this week. Will call beforehand.
Blessings, Dixie and Harry
