Devon and Eric are Vancouver bound on Monday morning to see Devon’s oncologist, Dr. Connors. This trip is to determine if she is well enough after her last allergic reaction to continue with chemotherapy on Tuesday and Wednesday.

Its been weeks since Devon last did chemo and she is desperate to start again. Yesterday (Sunday), unfortunately, Devon headed back to the emergency clinic in Whistler because she was feeling so lousy – still having bad side effects from her last allergic reaction. She’s experiencing neck, eye and facial discomfort. After some medication was given to her, she headed home and is anxious now to see her oncologist to determine next steps.

Some tips on helping Devo practically right now:
1. Please keep phone calls and visits short (like really short!) as she’s tired and has a hard time concentrating on anything for very long. Even listening takes a lot out of her. Thanks for understanding!

2. We’ve added another date this week to the meal train as she’s just too tired to do much cooking. If you haven’t signed up for a meal (even delivery is a possibility!), please consider signing up here. This is a very practical way to help Devon out and she is so thankful for this support. We have dates on the meal train throughout August. More dates will be added as we know her treatment plan each month.

Thanks so much! We’ll post an update once she hears from Dr. Connors.
