Kara has been feeling much better since receiving the "new" blood, and has been more like her old self. For the past month or so, she'd been feeling bad, fighting colds, and having a hard time doing all the things she wanted. Now she's feeling much better, able to think clearly, and has more energy. She's looking forward to a fun holiday weekend with the family. She has continued to tolerate the Avastin well.
We're spending Thanksgiving at the farm, and Kara and the kids went up a day early to check things out -- Mom and Dad's new house has been completed, and they are (mostly!) moved in. Emma and Luke are excited to be back at the farm, feeding "their" cows and running around like crazy.
We are thankful that Kara's feeling much improved, and thankful that she is at a phase in her treatment where she can get out of the city and enjoy time with the family. Kara's thirty-third birthday is coming up on November 29th, and we'll be having a birthday party for her this weekend.
Prayer Requests:
- Please pray that Kara continues to have energy and feel like herself.
- Please pray for insurance approval of the Avastin.
- Please pray that the cancer is eradicated from Kara's body, permanently.
Thank you. We are so very thankful for your continued presence in Kara's life and treatment, and your prayers, words of encouragement, love, and support are truly a blessing and a gift. We hope you travel safely, and enjoy a wonderful Thanksgiving with your friends and families.

Dear Kara,
Happy belated Thanksgiving! We're so glad that you're feeling better and that the new chemo treatments are going smoothly.
We hope that you enjoyed spending the long holiday weekend at the farm. We wish we could have been there with all of you, but we look forward to Christmastime!
