Updates

I left the last entry with the news of Vickie in the hopital and test being run. We now have all of the results we have been waiting on. Turns out she has Stage four Colo-rectal cancer that has spread to almost every organ except the lungs. Her brain has lesions as well as some bone. She underwent surgery today to put the port in to administer chemo. She will start radiation on Monday only on the lesions in the brain as well as some that are on or above the femur. Chemo will start Tuesday and will be 24 hours for one week. They are hoping to have an appointment at MD Anderson in about a week. We need all of the prayers from anyone you can talk to. I will keep you updated.

As for Will, he had his post op appointment and went as I had expected it would. His left tube is blocked (again) and the right ear is infected (again). We opted to do the Levaquin antibiotic one more try for 7 days. If he does not respond to it this time, then he will be put in the hospital for IV antibiotics. Please keep him in your prayers as well.
