Update

Thank you again for your prayers and love for our family. Dan had a good report on Monday at the doctors and he has gained 4 pounds. His wound looks good and is not infected. Yeah! The second surgical wound is oozing a bit but is healing up. He and Ashley are meeting with the oncologist and the surgeon next Wednesday to discuss the future options apart from the obvious surgical one. It was good to catch a glimpse of them on Monday after Ashley had an interview with Lodi Memorial Hospital. Wisdom for Dan and Ashley and the doctors for their Wednesday meeting is our request of the day. Also Ashley will be graduating in 3 weeks, May 29! Great, great kudos to her and we are so proud of all the hard work she has done in the midst of this difficult semester. Now she is entering a job market that is very depressed for new nursing grads. Anyone know of a job opening, please let us know. No new blogs from Dan and Ashley, but here are some good words from our LORD:

Psalm 117
Praise the Lord, all nations!
Extol him, all peoples!
For great is his steadfast love toward us,
and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever.
Praise the Lord!

James 1:5-8
If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.
But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind.
For that person must not suppose that he will receive anything from the Lord;
he is a double-minded man, unstable in all his ways.
