Day after chemo

Richie stayed in bed fairly late today and was up for most of the day. He went back to bed later on this afternoon because of feeling tired. He didn't sleep very well last night - odd dreams kept waking him up. We think they're related to the chemo. He's still eating really well. He is just feeling worn out and tired. He is so thankful and appreciative of everyone who is praying for him and thinking of him. He said he never realized how many people really cared so much about him!

Thank you so much for keeping us posted, Daphne. It's so nice to hear how Richard is feeling. All our love to both you and Richard. I had to sing at church today for our 2nd graders who received their First Penance. I offered up my singing for Richard. LOVE YA LOTS!

Hi, Richard.
It was really good to hear that you were at home, a place where it will probably be lots easier to get some good and needed rest. We hope that your feeling a bit weary won't last too long and that you will at least be able to enjoy ice cream. I've always thought that ice cream is the universal "make-you-feel-better" food.

Give our love to the whole family up there in PA. Tell Peter that we hope college life is treating him well and that he is enjoying all that info and all those tests!

Hugging you from Virginia~Aunt Dolores and Uncle Michael

Hi, Rich. I have one question for you. If you take an Oriental person and spin him around several times, does he become disoriented? Something for you to think about. Love you.....Aunt Marie

Guess you are wondering who Anonymous is aren't you? Well you should have known it was Kathy. I work on a computer all day and still couldn't figure out how to work this. Hope you are feeling good today.
