a great thursday!

Mom had an appointment with Dr. Barrows for her second time on Thursday. He gave her some documents on diet for those with Ovarian Cancer. He also gave her a list of foods favorable and unfavorable for Ovarian Cancer. He also gave mom some good news, he told mom she can get back to swimming laps, unless her white blood cell count gets below 500, which can happen in the middle of the three week period.

Then mom and dad had some extra time in between doctors appointment so they went to Upper Fillmore for some shopping and ate lunch at a Peruvian Restaurant.

Next mom met with Beverly Burns, a Traditional Chinese Medicine Specialist. Her focus was on childhood exposures to pesticides and exogenous hormones ... meat and dairy. At the end she did acupuncture which left mom feeling peaceful, calm, and healed.

Then we (Tony, Sheila, Helena, Moira, Nick, Dela, and I) went out to dinner to celebrate the October birthdays. It was a lot of fun.
