Back Home

We had a wonderful time in SD with the grandchildren, daughter and son-in-law. Playing with the kids was great fun and even the baby, Wyatt, who is six months seems to smile practically all the time. Plus we had a great time visiting with Carol and Avery. (The trip was via Skymiles, so essentially free.)

My health was great during the visit and now. I get tired easily, but that is as much due to inactivity and muscle atrophy as it is chemo. It seems I am getting stronger instead of weaker as time goes on and after three chemo treatments. I don't need an afternoon nap most days anymore. This seems to be the opposite of what we expected from the chemo.

Yesterday, Friday, we had PET and CT scans to see how the treatment is progressing, and we get the results on Tuesday. Thank you for your prayers. They have made all the difference in how well I'm doing.

Another blessing this week was that a large medical bill was totally written off because we do not have regular insurance. We have had no problems financially.

Praise the Lord for all His help on taking care of expenses, physical and medical needs, and for always being with us in a tangible way as we have journeyed this far.

Thanks for all your continued prayers. We know and can see the effects of them.
