Houston
Friday, January 6th, 2006Well, we are in Houston. For those of you who don't know why, Wes is having radiation. For those of you who don't know why he is having radiation, he was diagnosed with large b cell non-hodgkins lymphoma in August. He finished up chemo in early December. We have rented an apt here in Houston, and it is very nice. He might put up photos in the near future. We arrived in Houston on Wednesday, January 4. He had an appt on Thursday, January 5 with his radiation dr to find out how long we will be staying here. He also had blood taken and a chest x-ray done that morning to check the liver enzymes. The reason for this was b/c they saw something on the liver when we were here two weeks ago, but his blood work was fine, so his lymphoma dr was a little confused. The liver enzymes yesterday were slightly elevated, so they have order an MRI tonight at 8:45. If everything appears to be fine, he will start radiation on Wednesday, January 11 and end on Friday, February 10. He got his tattoos this morning, so they will make sure they are hitting the right spot. I don't think he enjoyed it.
Emma Grace is loving her new home away from home. Bless her heart, she has been in more places in her 6 months of life than most people have in a life time. She doesn't seem to mind. She is the happiest baby, except when she is hungry or she thinks she needs attention. She has been enjoying hanging out on the balcony with her grammy the past two days. It is really nice, and the weather has been too. Well, it is almost time for us to leave for the MRI. I will try to post everyday to let everyone know how things are going. Please pray that we will get good news from the MRI, which should be ready late Monday or Tuesday. Kristie
