Jolene had fun with Kayla and Elizabeth and friends today (teenage girls from Columbus, MS). They were here at the RMH with the Pittman family. They made the cutest sign for our door!

However, by about 4:00 PM, Jolene was vomiting and couldn't keep anything down. Her temperature was 103, but she couldn't keep Tylenol down, so we went over to the hospital again (so much for that short visit this morning!). They gave her IV meds for nausea and were able to bring her fever down. We got a "get out of jail free" card for the night, so are praying we can stay on top of the nausea and fever for the night. Once we got back to the RMH, we went to the Mandi Green meditation room and a whole crew of people prayed over Jolene - it was really nice and you could feel God's presence, which always helps...

Jolene is scheduled for chemo, day four tomorrow morning and she will also have a blood transfusion in the morning. We usually make it through chemo and a few days before the transfusions begin, so it is definitely getting more toxic for her little system. Prayers for comfort for the next few days are appreciated. Many thanks!
