We went to Stanford today for the follow-up with the radiation oncologist.....he said that my dad is right where he should be with the healing process. So as long as he continues to improve, we are doing good. Its just a SLOW process. We will get a PET scan in April to check to see what it looks like and to make sure nothing is growing back yet. I think sometimes I get too anxious about it all. For some reason I have it in my head that he should be feeling better by now. I mean, if I look at it logically, we've had a few bumps in this healing process....between the dehydration, malnutrition, crazy blood pressure drops, and out of control blood sugars.....those are enough to slow anyone's healing process down. But I think we FINALLY got all of that mananged. Now it is just the getting stronger part we have to work on...then that will make a worlds difference. I thank EVERYONE for their continous thoughts and prayers. We all know that God is the Almighty Healer, and he's got a plan for Marty....I have to continue to pray for patience, because I don't like waiting this long for the process, but we'll get there!Love ya all!!!
