. . . the journey . .

It has been a bit longer that I would have liked since i last posted but there are times when it seems that words just dont seem to be there. This last month has been like that. We have been faced with the making the decision regarding whether to change Oncologists. Weighing all factors, including treatment philosophies, staff etc we did decide that a change was in order. Currently we have seen the new Dr and are working on treating the infection in Orin's belly before resuming chemo again and ask your prayers for success in identifying the organism as well as the right treatment. Thank you all for your support. Kathy

I bet you all thought I fell off the edge of the world or something! no... just trying to recover from a greaat weekend with out kids at Grand Lake. We left last Friday about noon and arrived home Sunday evening. Our whole family.. kids,and grandkids and dogs played, ate and spent a lot of time getting "wet" at Grand Lake.. ( Thank you so very much, David and Susan for your gracious hospitality).. On the way home Sunday six year old Blake rode with us....at one point I said "Blake, how many times do you think we went swimming this weekend?" his response: an emphatic "A LOT!!" It was a very special family time. however..we did come home quite tired and have spent a good bit of time this week resting!! not as young as we used to be!! Orin is beginning to feel some better. He is in the third week now since treatment and so every day gets better. He mostly is tired a lot.. still some stomach upset problems. He did better than we hoped over the weekend. ...
