In reply to: Stacy 's message, "UPDATE" on 00:06:31 07/10/04 Sat

Geez, I've been busy lately, and haven't had much chance to get to my computer. Patrick was in WV, visiting his mom for a week, so I wasn't home all that much while he was away. (Spent a lot of time on your side of town!) And I've been working a lot of extra hours. So, let's see......

First of all, I'm glad to hear that the treatment is going well! I know that the situation could change, but it sounds like you're doing as well as anyone could have hoped. But please TRY to avoid those trucks on the Beltway!!!!!!!!

My dad is no longer on Taxol. I guess the doc figured that the numbness in his feet was enough reason to discontinue that drug. So he's on something else now, though I haven't been informed of exactly what it is. His feet are still numb, so he's still using his walker to get around. Hopefully they'll return to normal before TOO long. My folks were somewhat disappointed, since the Taxol seemed to be working so well against the cancer. I'll be going up there a week from Saturday, staying a week, so I'm sure I'll find out more. I've passed along information that you've given me--my mom says it has been helpful, and accurate, and "That Stacy is quite a gal!"

Michelle and I went to Ocean City last weekend. The weather wasn't too good, but we had a good trip anyway. We did go swimming for a little while, but we also walked on the beach, hit the amusement park on the pier, took a speedboat ride (saw dolphins up close), and we went parasailing! Neither of us had done that before. We have pictures from our trip (mixed in with pictures from the trip Patrick and I made to OC earlier this month) on our photo web site (http://www.mshipke.com/photogallery).

Continued success in your treatment! One of these days, I'll have to buy you a fuzzy navel (with grenadine) somewhere.....
