Houston Weekend

Yes, we are off to Houston for Alan's monthly test and scans. We will do our normal. Leave early Sunday morning and come back late Monday. Alan is working graveyards, so that means I will probably be driving the whole way there so he can sleep...Yikes!! Alan is doing pretty well. Side effects seem to be the same as normal. Nausea, fatigue and head and feet sores and of course, the white hair! Poor guy has blister like sores on the bottom of his feet and lets just say he is up on his feet alot due to his job and his feet are tender. He gets off of them as soon as he can when he gets home. They are pretty good to him at work and let him rest when he needs to. I will probably post again with Alan's results Tuesday. We just ask for prayers for our travels and for Alan's healing. I also ask for you to send prayers to other families going through difficult times. No, Alan's situation is not the best, but man, there are families loosing their children to cancer and I just can't imagine.
Thank you to everyone. We love you! God is good, all of the time!
