First of all, thanks to everyone for the prayers, cards, and food. Its been overwhelming how many people have stopped Julie and I to let us know they're thinking of us and praying for us.

This looks to be a fairly easy week coming up. Julie is planning on wig shopping tomorrow with her mom and sisters and then go to Dr. Campbell's office for her weekly blood testing. Wednesday Julie and I will be going to get her PET scan, which will give the doctors a much better idea if there is cancer anywhere else in her body. Since the bone scan, chest x-ray and CAT scan all came back we're optimistic. Julie is happy that she doesn't have to drink any more barium sulfate like with the CAT scan.

So far the chemotherapy has been fairly managable. She was definitely sick Tuesday and Wednesday and has been tired since the chemo on Monday, but she's at least feeling well enough to do some of her normal activities. She went furniture shopping yesterday and went to church then grocery shopping today. I have a hunch that over the next six months I'll be able to tell how she's feeling by how much money she's spending.

Thanks again for all of the thoughts, and we'll try to keep this blog updated so everyone knows what's going on.

Ron
