More Encouragement

    
   Yesterday Lon started his 11th round of chemo.  This regimen has been recurring every two weeks since August 27…almost a full day at the clinic and then home with a round-the-clock chemo pump for 46 hours.  Tomorrow he gets it disconnected once again.  The good news is that his CA19-9 number is down three more points since last time – down to 16!  His side effects are tolerable, and he has been able to enjoy some great times with family and friends.
   We are still praying for a miracle of healing, but daily we are experiencing miracles of strength and health beyond what anyone predicted.  WE ARE SO THANKFUL for all your prayers and for our faithful God.  Next Tuesday Lon has another CT scan, so we should have more information then about what is happening inside his body.
    Last weekend our kids and grandkids met us at Great Wolf Lodge for two nights and days for some fun activity while Lon attended the NAPUS Mid Winter Conference as a retiree.  He got to spend time with family and Postmaster friends – definitely making a memory for the family!
