We are closing out the PO BOX

An update from Tori's Mom:

Over the past two months, Tori has been having good days and bad.  She has about maybe 5 good days out of each week but she is still extremely tired all the time and sleeps most of the day and night.  Just a little bit of activity completely wipes her out and she goes to bed every night at about 7pm.  

She has had some episodes of vomiting again and so she will be getting an upper GI scope next week to see what is going on in that tummy of hers.  She has also started to have a few headaches again, which sometimes put her down for the day, but atleast she is not having them everyday.  When she does have good days we consider them precious.

Neil has been a great help to us all, sometimes coming over to stay with Tori or taking care of her at his house, so that we don't have to miss too much work.  He takes very good care of her and we are thankful.  

Tori's doctor has again reduced her work schedule to only 24 hours a week until she begins to feel better.  She has another MRI in February to see how the tumor is responding to the radiation.  

She got a new job at Starbucks as a shift manager, which is a step up in the world...she gets some benefits, a pay raise, and a less stressful atmosphere to work in, which I think she really needs right now.  I am excited for her.  She starts next week after her Upper GI scope. 

Please note that since donations have slowed down, we are closing out the PO BOX.  If you would like to donate, you can send it directly to Tori here at our home address, which is:

26103 Six Points Road
Sheridan IN 46069

Other than that there is not much to report.  Thanks again for all your prayers and support.  We love you all.
