Ruth had her port put in yesterday. The only complication was they couldn't get her oxygen up to a certain point (90% +) so she had to bring oxygen home last night (she was not too thrilled)- she can take it off this morning. She is eating well, feeling well and walking a little faster and faster each day on the treadmill.
Chemo # 1 (out of 6 for this session) is scheduled on Tuesday February 10th. As of right now they are planning to use the same combo of chemo that they used last time, so hopefully she will tolerate it the same. She has an appointment down in Denver on Wednesday with her surgeon to check up with him.
Thanks for your prayers, support and so much more!!

Ruth- I can't believe you're on the treadmill!! Makes me feel so lazy and now I'm motivated to keep up my exercise routine of aerobics and snowshoeing 4 times/week. Since my heart troubles I have been more in the mood to read a book and eat potato chips in self-pity than exercise. You are a great inspiration, Ruth. Love, Amy N.
