Lila had a great week.  She is feeling very well.
 
Monday---Blood test and review.  All was well.  Also went to heart rehab.
 
Tuesday---Lila was feeling good, we went to the Houston Space Center.  We took the tram tour of the complex, saw the "old" control room and lots of the hardware.  We also saw two movies and looked through the museum.  We were there about 5 hours.  Lila was tired but held up very well.
 
Wednesday---We went to heart rehab and that was Lila's birthday.  We went out for breakfast and after rehab just lofed around the rest of the day.
 
Thusrday---Lila had what we hope is the last of the chemo.  She also had a blood test and review.  The results were good.
 
Friday---Lila wanted to go to Pharr for the weekend.  We go here about 5:30 in the evening.  We forgot some of the medicine she needed each day.  We called her local doctor, found and purchased the meds.  All is well.  Very dry down this way, lots of wind, dust and 102 degrees as we were on our way down.
 
Saturday---My Jeep has been in storage here at the house since March.  Had about 1/4 inch of dust.  Took Jeep it car wash, went to Walmart for some gas treatment.  Covered the Jeep up and will leave it here until Lila gets finished with her treatments in Houston.  Lila is visiting with some friends as I am working on this memo.  Some more friends are coming by to visit later this afternoon.
 
Sunday---Lila wants to go to her church.  Not sure what we will do tomorrow afternoon.  We heard back to Houston Monday morning.
 
Next Tuesday, Lila starts all the test need to do the stem cell transplant.  She has a full week at the hospital with test, doctor visits, etc.
She is ready to get on with the stem cell transplant.  We hope and pray it gets started sometime the next 2 weeks.
 
Later---Bob
