Break before back to aggressive chemo

We currently have a pampered chef fundraiser going on The giveforward.com is still there until 2/28

Tom is getting a break from chemo and radiation until Feb. 7 then he will start back on the very aggressive chemo. Right now he's still tired and weak from the chemo/radiation he has undergone. So at least now his body will have a break from the toxins.

But he is continuing to work. So it's difficult for him to just totally rest. But he does it for us to survive and also probably to keep his mind busy.

I just wish I could do more for him like wiggle my nose and make it all just go away. But I can't do that so I just stand strong behind him thanks to family, friends and community that helps keep me strong and pick me up when I feel I can't do this anymore.
