Hello everyone! Sorry it took so long to get this update on here! It's been a busy week for me! Richard came home on Monday afternoon. On Tuesday and Wednesday, he was VERY TIRED and felt nauseous. We managed to get to LGH for his Neulasta shot on Wednesday afternoon. Today, I took him to LGH for his intrathecal Ara-C dose (chemo. in the head port). He got that early this morning, but his bloodwork showed that his Potassium level is extremely low. He is getting IV Potassium today - 6 hours worth. I ran home here (Pebblebrook Dr.) to get some food for us for lunch. He'll be there until at least 4:30 p.m. this afternoon. I thought I would type a quick update before I head back to the hospital to sit with him this afternoon. If his Potassium level doesn't go up this afternoon, the doc might admit him for the night. His other counts are okay for now, so he won't need blood or platelets today. Please keep praying that he regains his strength! He desperately wants and needs it!
Love, Daphne

Hang in there, guys! I can't imagine what a drag this must be for both of you. However, Richard is getting great care and I'm sure he will be feeling strong in no time! Prayers are always coming your way!
Thanks for the update - I was wondering.
Lots of love,
Aunt Paula

Dear Daphne & Richard,
Well we are on the count down and I know Richard will bounce back at his normal rate… We do continue to pray for you and the family, but I would be amiss if I did not say THANK YOU LORD, you have blessed my heart with answers in behalf of Richard.
Well on behalf of our family to yours:
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Daphne, no more BLUE
For Richard and You
Luke 17:11-19
Darby Translation (DARBY)
11And it came to pass as he was going up to Jerusalem, that he passed through the midst of Samaria and Galilee.
12And as he entered into a certain village ten leprous men met him, who stood afar off.
13And they lifted up [their] voice saying, Jesus, Master, have compassion on us.
14And seeing [them] he said to them, Go, shew yourselves to the priests. And it came to pass as they were going they were cleansed.
15And one of them, seeing that he was cured, turned back, glorifying God with a loud voice,
16and fell on [his] face at his feet giving him thanks: and *he* was a Samaritan.
17And Jesus answering said, Were not the ten cleansed? but the nine, where [are they]?
18There have not been found to return and give glory to God save this stranger.
19And he said to him, Rise up and go thy way: thy faith has made thee well.
Who loves ya baby

It's been too long without a joke, so here you go! Title: Italian Boy's Confession
Bless me Father for I have sinned. I have been with a woman.
The priest asks, is that you little Johhny Parisi?
Yes Father it is.
And who was the woman you were with?
I can't tell you Father. I don't want to ruin her reputation.
Well, Johnny, I'm sure to find out her name sooner or later so you may as well tell me now. Was it Tina Minetti?
I cannot say.
Was it Theresa Volpe?
I'll never tell.
Was it Nina Capelli?
I'm sorry but I cannot name her.
Was it Cathy Piriano?
My lips are sealed.
Was it Rosa DiAngelo then?
Please Father, I cannot tell you.
The priest sighs in frustration. You're very tight lipped, Johnny Parisi, and I admire that. But you've sinned and must atone. You cannot be an altar boy now for four months. Now you go and behave yourself.
Johnny walks back to his pew and his friend Nino slides over and whispers, What'd you get?
Four months vacation and five good leads.
Love and kisses...Aunt Marie
