A quick update

It is my privilege to be in Williamsburg with my parents this week. I relieved Jacquie's daughter, Lauren, who was a big help and huge blessing to my parent's with her youthful personality. She makes everyone around her smile with her natural good cheer and my mom and dad just loved having their oldest granddaughter here with them. Thanks, Lauren :)
My Dad is starting to feel somewhat better from the nasty infection he had. He is still tired and weak, but the infection seems to be under control and his kidney function has improved some. The main complaint as always is his swollen eye. The left side of his head above and around his eye remains very swollen and it causes him to have some fairly intense headaches.
This week he will have a PET scan, which will determine if the cancer has spread further. Please keep us in your prayers and thoughts as it will be a tense couple of days until the results are in. The scan is tomorrow and we will meet with the oncologist on Thursday for the results.
I will have more information toward the end of the week.
