Yesterday we had a long outing since we did not have to go to clinic - took a ride down to Cape Cod. Drove by Nobska Lighthouse, the beach, around Woods Hole, by the Martha's Vineyard ferry, Yarmouth and Hyannis. Jack said that it was his favorite road trip to date. Maybe I will plan a few days at a bed and breakfast in July when we go back for the checkup. (I am planning on doing it before we go to Boston this time - the news from Boston last time did put a damper on the Maine excursion last summer!)
This morning we braved the snow and showed up to the clinic at 9AM. Jack got one bag of platelets (with no adverse reaction [yeah!]) and they removed his central line. We will go back in Monday morning and discuss what the plan is to get us sprung. I even called Blakely to warn her - she is in charge of getting the townhouse sterilized (cleaned, change linens, air filters, etc). Even if we get our note to go home the middle of next week - we will need to watch the weather and it will be a 3-4 day trip since I am the only one that can drive and Jack has his limits to the riding thing.
Will keep everyone posted.

Hi guys...
Been thinking about you all and praying for those counts to go up!
The gang at the office says hello and we have had many talks about you. You inspire us to remember what is most important in life - family and friends. Know that many people have you in thier thoughts and prayers, not just because who you are, but also because you mean so much to your loved ones.
Keep your spirits and your strength up. Let us know the progress on the new puzzle.

Hello Jack & Cheryl. It is really great to see that you are up and about. I was also pleased to see you (Jack) sporting some really special paraphernalia. That STEELERS gear is some extraordinary stuff to be worn only by CHAMPIONS! LOL! As they say in the Marvel Kingdom "NUFF SAID"!
I was home last week (in NYC) and as much as I LOVE NY, I can't say that I miss that all of that great winter weather.
Stay strong Champion and continue to take of each other.
