Tuesday Evening Update

Jenna had her follow-up visit with her doctor yesterday. It appears that the surgery went well and the ear is healing well. It still causes some pain and irritation but she is a trooper and is handling it well and is a brave soul. She has another follow up in four weeks and if all is going well they will look at some surgery for her other ear. She will also have to have her surgery for her ear that was done last week some time in the next six to twelve months. Hopefully we will be able to get most of her ear and hearing problems taken care of.

Marilee had her followup visit with Dr. Ward this afternoon and her lab test were looking pretty good and well enough that they have scheduled her next chemo treatment for this Friday. She continues to feel good but has limited strength but has good spirits and hope in her treatments. We found out that we were just lucky enough to be in the rotation of the doctors at Huntsman to have Dr. Ward in his rotation. Apparently the doctors rotated for three weeks. He has been a good, patience, and loving bedside manner.

Josh and Heidi head back to St. George tonight. They have been good to have around and we will miss them but they will be in communication on a regular basis. Marilee will plan on staying her at Kelli's for a while longer after her treatment.

The new bedroom and bathroom are very cool. They have done a great job in putting it all together and it is very comfortable for Marilee to rest and recuperate.

It is a small world. I parked the car after letting Marilee and Heidi out at the curb at Huntsman and got into the elevator and we stopped at the first floor to let people in the elevator and Chris Maughan got on.
