Yea! Yesterday I had my last chemo until after I go to Africa on July 8. I still have the moon face, some blemishes and a cough as a result of the medicine, but my hair is slowing growing out, and I am still relatively pain free. Thanks for all the meds and other items you have sent for JoAnn. We will be sure she and her patients get them!

Good news and jubilee
In the photo above, you will see Rose and JoAnn working on Jo's jubilee finery! Jo is back in Africa now and the outfit awaits only the finishing touches.
I got good results on my CT scan. Dr Wang Gillam told Donn and me that the tumor is the same, the mets have changed little, the blood clot is slightly smaller and there is no change in the lung lesion.
The symptoms, especially the fatigue, are slightly increased.
Under the circumstances, it is exceptionally positive news.
Thanks for all who are praying for me, especially Becky, who was ASSIGNED to pray for me!
XO
