We just wrapped up an enjoyable weekend with our friends Ray. Leonie, and their daughter Ebony. After dropping them off at the airport Jon has decided it is now time to drain all of this fluid. We are back at the UW waiting in the ER. Hopefully they will admit him today, drain the fluid, install the shunt then send hom home in time to have chemo on Tuesday. Jon really perked up upon the arrival of our Australian friends and actually had a great weekend. He feels pretty good other then lugging around this extra 35 lbs of fluid.
