Endurance.........

Dad is still feeling well with minimal symptoms (pretty good for his 4th week of treatments). He is tired and when he does have a typical symptom, it seems to clear up quickly. Today was a full day. Dad said it best, "I just have to hurry up so I can wait". Here is a sample of his day - labs,wait, Dr. visit, wait, chemo, wait, radiation..... it was really something. And to think that during all of that he had a smile on his face. He saw Dr. Danso today, there are no changes in his treatment plan, but his lab numbers were good. He is holding steady on most of his numbers and there are no immediate concerns there. Praise God for that good news! The rumors are true, he is a trooper. He is surrounded by staff that is helpful and encouraging. They have made this whole process a little less stressful, kudos to Midland Hospital Oncology/Radiology Department. Most importantly he is surrounded by people who love him very much and he is feeling the love from the phone calls, notes and prayers from all of you. Thank you! - Steph
