An excellent weekend

We had a great weekend with all of our friends and family entertaining us. We better all be careful because Jon is getting completely spoiled and will be incorrigable when he is well!

Thank you to the Mauers, Pitts, Browns, Whalens, and Mortells for wonderful dinners and friendship. With all of your delicous cooking Jon actually gained a pound over the weekend. He initially lost 10 and it is extemely important for him to keep his weight up so we are moving in the right direction.

Today is Jon's second chemo. Levi and Maelie are taking him to keep him company. He has to sit still and have it delivered intavenously for 6 hours-no small task for someone who is used to being so active. Kelsey gave him an early Christmas present last night, a portable DVD player. I gave him a bunch of funny movies to keep his laughing (at Koreen and Dianes insistance!) Jon is convinced he will have no side effects from chemo this time around and he has felt good the entire week on what he calls "the cancer scale".

Please keep all the calls, emails, prayers, and positive affirmations coming!!
