Appetite returning to normal...

11/24
Jordy’s ability to eat is much improved. Today he was able to eat normally (pizza, lasagna, hamburger, etc.). Hopefully his weight will go back up. It certainly should! His energy level is returning to his “normal” chemo induced level.

Today we took lunch to Kevin and Kyle, did some visiting, picked up medications, and did a little shopping for Kevin’s birthday. It seemed like a lot in one day, but Jordy did pretty well. He even did a little show & tell of his foot. It is still looking great, although the skin is peeling a bit. The movement is getting smoother, but he still has a long way to go. Even though it is a struggle, Jordy is adamant that he made the right choice for his surgery. He is so amazing.

Tomorrow we will head to Portland for his weekly blood draw. We should be home early in the afternoon. I hope the fog stays away!

11/26
Jordy had his blood work done today. His levels were pretty low (as expected). He is pretty pale and tired, but that should change as his levels come up. Tomorrow we are celebrating Kevin’s birthday and Thanksgiving by heading to the coast for the day. It will be nice to get away from home for the day.

Enjoy your families and friends tomorrow. If you have children, give them an extra hug!

Happy Thanksgiving!!!
