Richard had his Neulasta shot on Monday. Monday afternoon, he felt fairly well. Since Monday night, however, he's been feeling very weak, nauseous, and "wasted" (as he puts it). He's really not enjoying this part of it all. He wishes to be back on his feet again in his "good days." I just keep encouraging him to "keep on going" so he can get his life back.
We are really getting anxious to move in to our house. June 28th can't come soon enough for us. The painting is coming along well - several people have been helping various evenings. It's all really coming together and starting to look like a home. There will be some things we will need to do after we move in (curtains, light fixtures, pictures, etc.), but we will have the "messy" things out of the way. The most important thing to us is it's our house that we worked for, and we'll be there together.
Please keep praying for Richard's health and overall wellness. He's toughing it out, but some days, it just gets to him. Thanks for your love and support! You all keep us going one day at a time.
Love, Daphne

Just keeeeeep on going
Bunnies have a reputation, speaking of June 28th, it will be here before you know it. The house sounds so nice and something to look forward…
For life’s adventure, Lord, I ask
Courage and faith for every task;
A heart kept clean by high desire,
A conscience purged by holy fire.
—McDermand

"Courage is fear that has said its prayers." What a great quote, Carl & Darlene - I want to remember that one!
Hang in there, Richard! You WILL feel better - you are young, strong, determined (shall I say, sutbborn), in love with a wonderful young woman AND faith-filled. We are pulling for you and never ceasing our prayers!
Lots of love and hugs,
Aunt Paula
Congrats on the house progress - I remember how exciting it was for Albert and I when we were building, etc. We couldn't wait to move into our own home!
Hang in there Rich, you will feel better before you know it. Just focus on the day very soon that you will finally be husband and wife. I am so happy for both of you!!! You are both in our prayers hang in there!!!
Love,
Kathy
