Auntie

Kelli & Terry flew to Houston on Wednesday night to prepare for her "port" procedure that took place this morning.  She had to do a class-ish type thing regarding the ins and outs of having a "port" before she could actually have it done.  Basically, having the port will allow for a much easier, quicker, and hopefully more comfortable experience each week as Auntie goes through her chemo treatment.  She did her class yesterday and had the port put in this morning.  After that was complete, she was able to have her fourth chemo treatment.  All went well!  Praise God!  They will get to fly home tomorrow...just in time for her "baby" to celebrate 21 years!!  How that can be, I do not know, since I am only 25 : )  Happy Birthday Christopher!!

Thank you all SO very much for the calls, texts, PRAYERS, meals provided, etc.  It is so nice to feel your love.  I still have the meal schedule on www.takethemameal.com for anyone who is interested...holler at me for the password.  I also still have lots of "Praying For Mrs. Owens" bracelets for anyone who did not get one or needs a new one!  Things we can continue to pray for:

*Energy!  That's been the biggest complaint throughout all of this for Kelli is that she is tired A LOT.  This has just zapped her energy....which is not acceptable with a classroom of 5th graders!  Ha!

*Continued minimal side effects...so far so good on the nausea, etc. that is often associated with chemo...please pray that continues.

*Complete HEALING!  Pray that this cancer gets its booty KICKED!!

We are excited to get Auntie home tomorrow and hopefully she will get to stay here for a while!  Her next several treatments (at least) should be able to be done in Tulsa...that will be nice!  Thank you for your support...we love you all!!
