We are home and Dan is entering the phase of needing to be extra careful in not being exposed to anyone who is ill. His immune system is decreased due to the chemo, so for the next 10 days we will be laying low as far as going out to crowded places. Please pray that Dan will not get any illness during this time. It will mean an immediate trip to the local hospital and heavy duty antibiotics. Also,his lower back went into a spasm yesterday. Not related to anything else I presume, but painful nonetheless. thank you for all the encouraging comments on the blog and cards in our mail. It is so helpful to know that many of you are praying for Dan and supporting us all through this difficult time.

Dan, I'm just writing to let you know that we're thinking about you and praying for you throughout each day. We will be praying that you don't get exposed to any "bugs" while your immmune response is low. And we won't visit you either . . . my four kids are full of germs! :-)
Gary & family
