Friday evening

Love the fact that I can be at a computer at Stanford and let you know about our day. It did not go as planned:) Oh well. Life has a way of doing that. Dan is getting his chemo as I write and we should be leaving around 8:00pm. I will leave the whole story until later. The dr. was very pleased with her exam showing a shrinkage of the tumors along with the info from the PET scan done Wednesday. Also his urine cortisol has come down from 10,000 to about 2,000. (Normal is 45) So we are on the right track. Dan is getting the FULL dose of chemo, so the next week may be a little different than before. Please pray that the side effects will be minimal. He is such a trooper it is unbelievable. Good news on his back spasms too - they have diminished. He does have a new right "rib" pain which may be several things. Need to go back upstairs. Oh, and I got a nap in the car this afternoon so my strength is renewed. Thanks for all your prayers for today. We feel so supported by you all. Many blessings back to you from our gracious Lord Jesus.
