For those of you that are still reading... Dad hada bone scan last week as he is having trouble sitting for very long. The told him that if everything was okay it would take 2 weeks to get results and if there was anything to worry about they would call right away. So yeah they haven't heard anything so that's good news.
Dad still has to go for blood work regularly and this week his GP wants to do a more thorough examination. So that's what he has to "look forward to" this week!
So yeah that's what's going on...
For Prayer Requests... for the praying type...
- Pray that dad will be strong/healthy enough to come and visit their new grandbaby in June/July!!! We'd all love to have them be able to make it out here!!!
So yeah... umm that's it for tonight!
Amy for the fam.

The News...
Just wanted to let you all know that we really appreciated your thoughts and prayers. Dad has been able to go church and has been able to do a few more things. He still struggles with sitting for any amount of time. The doctor has desided to send him for a bone scan next week - April 2nd - Wednesday... so, well, it's hard to know exactly what to pray... pray that they find something? Pray that they don't? I guess pray that God's will will be done!!
thanks again...
Amy for the crew!

We are still out here... Happy Almost February!
Well hello again all...
Sorry yet again for us disappearing but we are still out here... Dad's been doing alright the last little while still tired and a few issues that are a result of the surgery but he has been getting out and more whether for a meal with some of you in the area or for a drive.
He's heard some stories about skido-ing and wish that he could be out there too!!! So well that's a good sign because that means that he's thinking about getting out there and maybe it will be a good motivation!
He has an appointment coming up with the doctor that did the surgery... so i will update when i have more info!
Oh yeah it's Dad's birthday tomorrow. So yet something else to thank God for... another year to celebrate!
Thanks for your faithfulness... Amy
Oh and for those of you that don't know... mom and dad are going to be grandparents again - Jared and I have having a baby!!!

Happy December
Well, hello again our faithful readers!
Again it's been quite some time since an update for which we apoloize.
The news as of yesterday is that dad still had the blood clot in his left leg. Please be praying that disovles soon! He is done wiht chemo and doesn't have to worry about an appointment with the chemo doctor til Feb 21... Feb 18th he will have another CT Scan and on the 20th more blood tests!
He is still getting his blood tested twice a week to check the thinkness and try and more the clot out.
Mom and dad have both appreciated the visits and calls that they have had recently. Some of the visits from people they haven't seen in quite some time so do call and stop by if you can. They have also had the opportunity to go out and visit others, go for drives... (ask them about the guy that they met at the hospital that told them to go and see all the lights that he had on his house. It's a funny story). They also got to spend time with the cousins. Lots of mom's cousin live in the area and they get together monthly at for lunch monthly i think. they always have a good time when they can go!!!
But yeah you're prayers for that blood clot to move/deisolve as well as continued ained strength would be greatly apprieciated!
With that I guess that I will sign off. Feel free to leave a message here, give mom and dad a call or stop in for a visit!
Thanks again for you're thoughts and prayers,And just incase I'm not back on here or i forget... Merry Christmas! May your holidays have times of fun, rest, and relaions with friends family and food!!!... just enough of all!! Blessings, your prayers and friendships have been and are are muchly appreicated.

No news is good news?
hello all that still read this page.
We are still all here and acounted for. Life just seems to have gotten really busy.
Dad is doing okay. He's had a blood clot that seems to have disapated... so that's good. From having to be still and have his leg up because of the clot he got a touch of pnemomia which had them to the emergancy room last week. The doctor that they say there was very thorough and sent dad for x-rays and gave him some antibiotics for to clear his lungs.
He has been seeing his doctor twice a week for the last little while so that they can monitor his blood count and it seems to be doing alright.
Dad's had some visitors lately, which he has really appreciated. They both have. They also both appreciate the phone calls as well! If you are wondering if he is welll enough to stop in for a visit, he has been lately... you can always call first or just stop in for a short visit... and don't be offended if he happens to fall asleep while you are there... but as most of you know... he did that at times before all this happened too... he doens't snore too loud... usually!
But yeah that's about all for now!!!
Amy - for the entire gang!

some not so exciting news...
But God is in control and He's got different timing... as has been displayed today. Dad was too week to take his last treatment so things are being post-poned 'til next week. He is going to see a new doctor and get another CAT scan. This is a little discouraging for all of us especially dad and mom. They were really looking forward to being done. So next week WEdnesday Dad has appointments all morning and then he should have his treatment at 1430 (2:30pm) so yeah please pray and if you think about it give hem a call or stop by as there spirits are a little low!
thanks again!
