Things are Looking Up

Jon's doing pretty well today. He has some difficulty sleeping because of the steroids so he's a little tired. He and Howard (Father-in-law #1) worked at one of his foreclosure houses together this morning and then met me for lunch. They are quite a colorful pair!

THREE MORE CHEMOS TO GO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

We've researched a bit more on the Interferon and found that just like the chemo, Dr Chue prescribes it at a lower dose with an increased frequency. Although it makes you tired it's tolerated much better that way. Aaron (the other pancreatic cancer cure) is still on it after a year and is riding the Seattle to Portand Bike ride next month. He has also returned to work and is living what appears to be an cancer-free, normal life.

Please send extra prayers and positive thoughts tomorrow. Thursday is always Jons worst day after chemo and he could use the extra boost. He is also having the abdominal x-ray series in the afternoon and we are expecting a positive result.

"Colorful Pair" HA! You're funny! Well, Dad has always been fond of a nap :-)

Time for a dumb joke:

"Police officer: Excuse me, but your dog has been chasing a man on his bicycle."
"Dog owner: Are you crazy? My dog can't even ride a bicycle."
