Day 9

Hi Everyone,

      I am so happy that the weekend is here! Charlie had a pretty good day yesterday. He is still feeling queasy during the day, but is developing an appetite which is good. Last night we had some delicious subs from Stortos. They make the best sandwiches. Charlie doesn't have any diet restrictions at this time, but they do want him to follow a low sodium diet. Charlie continues to receive the shot for his white blood count. I am not too sure what the name of it is but it helps raise his white blood count. We also received good news from the doctors yesterday. The fluid that they took out of Charlies spine shows no spread of cancer in the spine. That awesome news!! Charlie is definitely keeping a positive attitude and all of you guys are helping him keep his head up high. On my way home last night I heard the song from the Karate Kid. Do you guys remember the end scene where he is fighting and Joe Esposito's song comes on? It goes, your the best around, nothings gonna ever keep you down....When I heard it, it made me think so much of Charlie. He is truly the best around and this cancer is not gonna keep him down. He's gonna fight it till he wins! I'm sure this weekend I will have more updates on how he is doing and will write a little more. Stay tuned. We love you all!
