Here is a brief update-I'll chat more when it isn't so late. We love you all and, to be honest, many of our friends and family are getting instant updates via Facebook. I'll try to remember to post to the blog too.
Anyway, we just returned from Charlotte last evening. Bobby had scans, blood work, and a dose of medication. The day was a mess. Bobby tried to help the nurses out so he want down to the lab for his blood draw. That really messed up the nurse's plan for the day. The lab messed up the tubes...and it all went downhill!
Bobby's scans look great! He originally had abut 6 tumors that they were measuring. Tumor 1, 2, 3, 4, & 6 are gone...not a trace. However that one tumor # 5 is hanging around. The good thing is that it is NOT growing either! We are sooo blessed. Bobby is feeling pretty well-he gets tired easily and doesn't have the stamina he used to have. We're ok with that. He hasn't really had any side effects. He has been very fortunate as there could be side effects that are nasty.
Everyone else here is well. We're busy with kid stuff, teaching Julie to drive--earning our parenthood badge. We made it through Lindsey but, this one is just different. Dan is well-he is dragging through school (which is almost over!!) We go back to NC in August (12 weeks) for the next dose.
We send love to everyone...and thank you for checking in. Please email or call if you want to say hello. We're here-we may be napping, gardening, enjoying life while we can. Love to all, D & B
