Up On The Space Needle
Today was spent attending all of the appointments I listed yesterday. We were hoping to be finished by noon tomorrow. Our scheduler phoned us this evening and added a couple more appointments. We will be busy all day again except I think he did leave us a little time to get some lunch. We did not have time for lunch today. It was a good thing we ate a big breakfast. It gets dark here very early. It is messing with my mind. When we got home I quickly made diner thinking it was late. It was dark out after all. We finished eating and it was only 5:00 PM. Now both John and David are crashed out on the couch and I could fall asleep very easily. It is only 6:00 PM! We have to get up early tomorrow and be over at the clinic by 8:00 AM.
We met with our nutritionist and social worker today. I think we have weekly meetings wit some of these people. We met our oncologist (the one we have for this month, they rotate them every month) He basically told us what we already knew except for the fact that one of the medications is hard on his kidneys and he will have to be on the drug for an extended period of time. There is risk to his kidneys. Please pray for John`s kidneys whenever you tink of them. We know that the Lord can protect them.

Looks like they're keeping you pretty busy (I remember that!). Drink lots of water to keep the kidneys flushed, I'll send prayers. If your nurse is Pat, say hi for me...and you are very, very lucky. They're all terrific at SCCA, but she's the best.
you look like a regular tourist over there. Glad you can have some fun. The market sounds pretty great. Looking forward to going to the S'toon Farmer's Market with you guys again in spring. We will definitely be praying that your kidneys stay strong and healthy and get stronger and healthier. Love you both!
Kevin: Our nurse is Ian. Turns out he is a fellow Canadian. He has already took charge of our lives. LOL They want him to drink and drink already. If we do see Pat (probably will) we will say hello for sure.
Hi, I had Global t.v. call me today. They heard about the fundraiser and want to help raise money for John. They want to know if I'll do an interview. I was wondering if you are interested in having this done. Also, if you would have a relative better qualified, that would agree to the interview. Please contact me either by phone or my email address. I'm supposed to let them know Monday.
Woa aren't you guys glad that I saw Dad's hat in the closet that morning and brought it out? Whew. I want to come visit and sit on the roof.
