I was so excited to just happen upon these happy, whimsical structures I shot a few photos to share WITH YOU...
Now every time I look at my "Art work"....I know where it REALLY lives!
Frankfort Michigan.
AN UPDATE ON DAVE....
TODAY WE SPENT THE ENTIRE SUNDAY HAVING SCANS DONE.
MRI...OF THE BRAIN,
CT...SCAN OF THE LUNGS , CHEST AND ABDOMINAL AREA,
AND A TOTAL BODY BONE SCAN.
THE MRI...MACHINE BROKEDOWN AT ONE HOSPITAL SO WE WERE SENT TO ANOTHER.
BY 4 IN THE AFTERNOON WE WERE DONE.
THURSDAY WE MEET WITH THE ONCOLOGIST TO GO OVER THESE SCANS....
WE ARE IN THE MIDDLE OF MAKING SOME HUGE DECIONS AS TO HOW WE WANT TO TREAT THIS.
OUR MEETING WITH UNIVERSITY OF MICHIGAN DRS. WAS NOT PROMISING AND WHEN IT WAS ALL SAID AND DONE LEFT US EVEN MORE CONFUSED.
THE FORM OF CHEMO BEING OFFERED NEXT IS VERY UNFORGIVING...
HAIR LOSS AND EVERY SIDE EFFECT YOU CAN THINK OF NOT TO MENTION WHAT PERMANENT DAMAGE IT MAY LEAVE IN IT'S WAKE.
DAVE FEELS SO GOOD RIGHT NOW...NO SYMPTOMS WHATSOEVER, HARD TO IMAGINE ALL THIS IS GOING ON INSIDE OF HIM.
AFTER OUR MEETING THIS THURSDAY WITH THE ONCOLOGIST WE WILL DECIDE WHICH ROAD WE'RE GOING TO TAKE.
THE LORD HAS BEEN FAITHFUL IN DIRECTING OUR PATH THUS FAR AND THANKFULLY DAVE AND I ARE BOTH ON THE SAME PAGE ABOUT THE TREATMENT.
WILL SHARE MORE AFTER THURSDAY...
THANK YOU ALL FOR STOPPING BY SO OFTEN AND ENQUIRING AS TO HOW DAVE IS DOING...YOUR A TOTAL BLESSING TO US.
GOD'S IN CONTROL...THAT IS OUR COMFORT AND OUR HOPE.
HUGS TO YOU ALL,
XOXO~KATHY
I'm hoping that all of our praying is helping Dave.
ReplyDeleteCool that you found the place! Love that!
ReplyDeleteI see my oncologist tomorrow. The Lord will direct you to the right decision. One time my doctor wanted to do another major surgery...I said no...he was shocked. I chose tomotherapy instead...and later, he told me that was a good decision. I had no peace about surgery at that time. You will know. Still praying.....
Love all the bright pretty pictures. Sounds like the day trip was fun. It is wonderful that Dave is feeling so well and that you are able to enjoy and appreciate each other.
ReplyDeleteHaving your strong faith must be a comfort to you. Bless you both.
Talk to you soon ;)
