Well, today was a much better day other than it taking us about 1 1/2 hours to go four miles from the hospital to our house . All tests are completed and our plan of action for the next three or four days is in place. We have a consultation tomorrow at 8:30 am with the oncologist about all the test results and then an appointment for IV therapy at 11:00am and hopefully will be on our way home by 1:00pm. We have decided we need a few more things and it will be the last trip home for a while. Michael enters the hospital on Monday morning to start his chemo so it will be at least 42 days before we can go home again. We need to take the dog back home as I will probably be staying at the hospital day and night while Michael is a patient and don't need a dog while he is susceptible to high temps and low counts and the need to possibly take him to the emergency room at any time. We would like to thank everyone for the calls, emails, and the funds added to the account. Parking is killing us at $15.00 per day, but we have found a little cheaper place, just have to ride a metro bus from the bus stop to the Hospital. Hope to see some of you this weekend......if you have a moment, drop by to see us.

Terri and Michael
