Today (2/22/2010) at 10 AM we start our first Bead Trunk Show/Sale of 2010. All selected beads will be 25% off the marked prices for 2 weeks (ending at 5:30 PM Saturday, March 6, 2010). There are lots of pearls, several types of Jaspers and Agates, Amethyst, Malachite, Lapis, Sodalite, Aquamarine, Pink Opals and more...
For those of you who do not follow us on Facebook, here is a photo of Mom (Connie) taken yesterday afternoon at the Girlfriend's Tea to benefit the Cancer Association of Anderson. Believe it or not, she had chemo just the day before! The oncologist lowered the dosage of the chemo to hopefully keep her white blood count from dropping so much. She has completed two of the three treatments in this cycle. The last will be on Friday. Two weeks after that the oncologist will determine whether he feels she should take another cycle or if it is enough. We can visibly see that the nodules have receded! We are ever so appreciative of the outpouring of support, prayers, well wishes and positive thoughts from all of you and from so many friends we have never met, all over the world. THANK YOU ALL!

Mom/Connie update.. She wasn't feeling too well yesterday, running fever and having chills. We thought of the possibility of cellulitis, but couldn't tell for sure. Terri took her to Jeanne for her Lymphedema treatment, and Jeanne confirmed that she had a case of cellulitis. Then they went to see the oncologist for an Rx, her white blood count was low and she had been on the schedule for neupogen shots... but was not told.. talk about being in the right place. They got her Rx and she has started that. She returns tomorrow for the Neupogen shots. Right now she is resting and smiling, had a good dinner and is watching the news.
