Anna and I arrived back in Peoria on Thursday 9/6. She had a lot of blood work done, which took quite a while, so her chemo treatment was postponed until Friday. Friday afternoon, she began her first day of treatment, which took about 5 hours. She also received treatment today for about 3 hours, and will finish up one more Sunday. We hope to be released tomorrow after chemo has been completed. We will return twice a week for the next two weeks to check blood counts. Then the 3 week cycle starts over, and we expect to do 5 cycles total.   Anna is handling everything very well - she knows God is good! She plans on winning this battle, just like her favorite Cub, Anthony Rizzo!

Thank you you all for your support, prayers, and well wishes. I share all your messages with Anna and they Keep her spirits high!
