Update

Dad was moved to a regular room yesterday! Thank goodness he is out of ICU, although the care there was awesome it is scary to have him in there.

This morning his Surgeon along with the nurses from the Marie Crowley clinical trial chemotherapy and another Dr. all came in to consult on him.

The news was that he is looking good. Healing well. They did find a blood clot in his right arm that was causing some major swelling and will give him blood thinners for that. They are hoping to have him up doing rehabilitation therapy such as walking today. He is going to be able to eat normal foods, which I know is exciting for him!

The nurses from Marie Crowley told him that there are several trials he can qualify for and can get back on chemo when he is ready after this bump in the road. That is GREAT news!

I am asking that you continue to pray for his healing. Not only of his physical body but of the emotional toll his fight against cancer has taken on him. I cannot begin to imagine the strength he uses to fight off this battle everysingle day through the pain and emotions. He is a fighter though! And as much as he keeps his conversations with me light and positive I know it has taken a toll on him.
