Hi Friends,
Oh the bliss of being away from the world for a week! We haven't even had computer access - and we haven't missed it! We've had wonderful weather and we've been busy enjoying it!! Karri has hung in there, determined not to miss a single moment of the good times whenever possible. She has felt pretty good, and she has loved the time with family on the beach and on vacation OUTINGS, especially considering that she goes in for chemo treatment #3 next week. She will post more details about our vacation and we'll put up some "show and tell" pictures once we get home this weekend. Thanks for all your love, prayers, and continued good wishes! Love from "Team Karri"
Happy Birthday Karri!! Final Chemo is 10/15 - hooray!!
The actual date of Karri's birthday is October 8th but we've been joyfully celebrating all week long. She's been able to go out to eat, see movies, watch Allie play volleyball, and attend church. We love watching her enjoy her favorite foods again. We are so grateful for all your support; it has been critical to help her to celebrate this birthday with gratitude for her return to good health. She continues to improve steadily each week. Pictured here: Allie (14), Brandon (24), Karri and Jerry, and Abby (6). Matthew and Jordan are away at school. Love from all of us to all of you.
Sept 13th: Happy Birthday Jerry!
The Robisons (sans Jordan away at school) celebrate. Karri has had a good weekend too! She is eating a healthy normal diet without nausea, and with the benefit of an epidural shot, she is beginning to regain some mobility. While her back pain is not entirely diminished, she has begun to get around with a cane instead of a walker - yay!
June 22: Welcome Home from the hospital Karri! Good Luck w/Chemo

Despite looking great, Karri is fighting post surgery complications including serious infection and debilitating, persistent nausea.

Hello "Team Karri"
Glad to hear that all of you are having a wonderful vacation.
Karri- good to hear you were out and having fun.

Happy to hear that you've had a good family vacation. I'll probably pass you on the road, as we're going to Carlsbad on Sunday. Art and I will be praying you through this next chemo treatment. And then , I hope to visit you, with a couple friends!
