Chemo has been going okay. Matt has been taking his chemo medication, Xeloda everyday for six days. His has been making him very tired and nauseous. Thursday following chemo in Johnson Creek he experience some bladder issues. Matt called the doctor and he wanted to see him right away. Matt went in and the doctor decide he might have a bladder infection. Matt is taking medication for the infection. We also found out at the Doctor appointment that Matt has a kidney stone in his left kidney. This was found on the last CT-Scan.

Matt is working through the tiredness and nauseousness. He wants to get the house built and move in and finally he can slow down some.

Here are some pictures of this weekend of painting. Many family and friends showed to help pain the living room, master bedroom, office, kitchen and master bathroom. Windows were stained and the following days they got polyurethane. Today they are working on putting up the trim, kitchen cupboards, counter tops. Then Matt and Ryan are going to lay the wood kitchen floor and they will be tiling the 2 bathrooms and the front entry way.

Thank you for all the continued prayers for Matt. Please keep Matt in your prayers for him to handle the chemotherapy and for the chemo to slow the growing of the cancer!!
