Still going strong



Rick has continued to feel well. No side effects except for some mild nausea, and he’s not missed any school. He got a 100 on his spelling test Friday. On Sunday, we walked over three miles and he was up for more. He almost stepped on this snake! I think he jumped a foot when he saw it. Last night we went to one of our favorite restaurants in Hull, Jake’s Seafood, where he claims they have the best Mac and Cheese anywhere. He ate everything on his plate. Afterwards, he convinced me to go walking around and that’s the other picture here. If you know Ricky, you know he was looking for new telephone pole numbers for his ever-expanding collection.

He had a blood test yesterday, and his platelets remained the same as last week at 52,000. Good news that they didn’t drop, but it would have been better if they had risen. His next chemo is set for May 20th and his MRI is scheduled for May 28th. Please keep sending those good thoughts and prayers our way.
