Hi y'all! Sorry for the pause but I warned you I'd be busy with kids and grands this week!! I've not been the only "slacker"...Bobbie Jeanine has been one too. (Just joking of course)....but as you all probably know, she didn't get to go home after all. More fluids were drained from her abdomen, I think it was on Wednesday. She suffered with pain and nausea that night and until Thursday afternoon. She felt great through the night and this morning...and suddenly was struck again with pain and "retching". Plenty of meds calmed her down and she seemed to be resting when I saw her last.
Tonight I get to be at her side once more....what a blessing! To have moments to visit and laugh when she feels good, and to have a chance to offer her a cold rag and call for her nurse to come quickly with relief when she does not.
The nurses on the oncology floor have been incredible...can't praise them enough! And her doctors have been too.
Please pray for strength and courage for Dick and the kids and for comfort and peace and freedom from pain and nausea for dear Jeanine. Love to all~ Nancy

Donations for Jeanine
You can still help offset Jeanine and Dick's financial expenses by sending donations to:
425 Highland
Abilene, TX 79605
Attention: Robin
Please specify "Jeanine's account" on your donation.
In Dick's words...:Jeanine, you know you are in a win-win situation here. If you are healed on earth, you win! If you are healed in heaven, YOU WIN!" (paraphrased)
When Jeanines Journey began we asked for your help to offset their expenses...mostly for trips to Houston. Many people gave very generously at that time and they made it through that phase of the battle without undue financial stress. Now they are battling on another front...Jeanine has been hospitalized for a week. She is not yet ready to be released.
If you are seeking opportunities to help, this might be a great time to make a contribution. Small amounts are fine...they add up. Thank you from the Wharton's for all that you have done, and I thank you too, for allowing me to speak for them in ways that they would never speak for themselves.
In a Nutshell as of 3-7-2010
