1/24/14 – Update

Hey everybody, this is Gordon.  I am going to give just a quick update to let you know where we are in our wonderful journey with ovarian cancer.  Peri has started to slow quite a bit.  She is in the bed the majority of time now.  She can still get up to go to the restroom and maybe sit in the chair, by the window of our room.  I know that many of you have noticed that her response to texts, phone calls, emails, etc.. has diminished greatly.  Besides being in bed and sleeping more, her mental faculties are slipping as well.  I am wanting you to know this so that you will understand why your calls or messages are not being returned promptly, or at all.  These next several days are going to be very trying for our family.  We are now at that point that I was hoping to not have to go through.  So much for wishful thinking.  The good thing is that she is sleeping more.  That’s good because she is not comfortable when awake.  Thanks for your understanding and patience.  Peri is being her typical self, fighting and trying to still direct what it is that’s going on around her.  She is still looking forward to making her 50th birthday party.  I will be updating on that over the next severel days.  We may have to modify that a little.  I will keep you up to date as soon as I can.  

Please keep praying for my sweet Peri.  Also, please keep praying for our sweet, sweet children.  It’s not fair that they are going through this.  I am so proud of them for how they are handling this shitty situation.  My heart aches for each of them!!

Gordon
