Another good day

Dear Ones,

Bedtime and blog time too. Nan just cut my hair, seems there is a bit less to cut than that photo from the blog yesterday. Nikki got a real kick out of the photo and was comparing herself at that age to Keanna, thanks Dennis for sharing.

Terri came this morning, she changed the dressing on the new picc line and drew blood using it. Worked well, good news. Keanna and Steve came to visit and that was fun. Nan listened to a conference call today put together by GIST experts and learned of even more trials that are taking place over the country for patients. She stayed downstairs for quite a while and then went up for a nap. She had a good day overall and enjoyed resting, watching TV and snacking. After I got home this evening Nan had some ideas about dinner. She directed me to find and cook some lima's, they turned out great, prepare some vege chicken by dipping it into a mixture Nan created with crumbs and herbs. It turned out very tasty.

Later we built a fire, watched a new House episode and are now preparing to go to bed. Our day has been productive and positive. We are looking forward to seeing a new oncologist next tuesday at UCSF and then having new nephrostomies put in the next day and then home again.

Tonight we are still very much enjoying the memories of sunday and the party with friends. We thank you for your continual prayers in Nan's behalf.

We send our love,

tim and nan
