Improvement in Calcium levels . . . .

Dad is resting in the hospital this evening after a restless difficult night. He had moments of agitation and was a bit combative this afternoon. He was given pain medication which helped him to settle and sleep. His ability to communicate is limited but he still recognizes those that visit. His calcium level did go down some in the last 24 hours and we will continue to try to get it to an acceptable level - this is the top priority. After the calcium is down, tests will be done to assess the cancer to determine what our next step will be.

Thank you for your prayers - we feel God's peace as he prepares us for the next step of the journey. Bless you all.

You have all been in our prayers for months now, but we will increase those prayers. I feel your pain, I know your heartache, this is such a difficult time for all of you. I pray for strength not only for Uncle Bob but for all of you. I pray for the wisdome of the doctors and for the strength to get Aunt Phyllis through each day. God's Blessings to all of you
