This hectic life...

Life is about as hectic as it has been in a long time, between challenges at work and health issues with Dad, cancer care at San Antonio and everything else. At least it means I am alive. And I don't kid myself; I know it can get much, much rougher. So we are blessed indeed.

My Dad has been home since Friday after spending ten days in the hospital -- five in ICU following a mild heart attack. Although he has shown improvement in some areas, we are not confident that he is doing much better nor that he will get much better. We are covering new territory as a family, and are learning as we go. Please pray for us.

Our appointment yesterday was about as vanilla as it gets. My labs were back to normal ranges (as least for me), but I did lose the two pounds that I had previously gained. (If you happen to see a couple of pounds laying around, they might be mine.) I am sure the weight loss is because I have not focused as much on eating lately with everything going on. We made an appointment for June 10 for a consult visit with the surgeon, Dr. DeArmond, so we can discuss surgery on the right lung and perhaps come up with a possible date for that. I do have DEXA scans (bone scans) on schedule for our next regular visit in two weeks. We are excited that come June 1st, Lord willing, we will be celebrating one year on LDE225.

Later...
