Appointment scheduled

We have an appointment scheduled for Tuesday, December 17 at MD Anderson.  They said to plan to stay 3-5 days.  They did say that since David has had so many tests already, that it would probably be shorter rather than longer.  Ain't nobody got time for cancer.

I'm  going to need to name all these doctors because it is going to get too confusing.  The one we have seen in Kyle is Dr. Uyeki.  So he is going to be Dr. U.  The one in Houston is Dr. Tannir.  So he will be Dr. T.  And MD Anderson is now going to be MDA.  Here is a link to info about Dr. T.  He looks pretty good on paper.  Pray for him.

Dr. U really wanted us to get in this week to see Dr. T.  He has contacted him about it.  Dr. U said it isn't concerning David's health, he just understands our schedule and knows we were hoping to have the surgery so David could recover over his school break.  So we are waiting to see if that will happen. 

I am just ready to move forward.  The waiting without a plan is so difficult.  We feel a little better each time we meet with a Dr. but then there is too long waiting without progress.  So, please pray that we can have peace with God's timing.  We really do want to follow God's plan for all this.  Please do not pray for patience!  I think the only way to learn patience is to have to wait and I don't want to add any extra time to learn that lesson!  So thanks, but no praying for patience!!!

That's really all I have right now.  But several have asked and I wanted us all to be on the same page.  And to ask you to continue to pray.  Please pray, it is so comforting for us and it is really all we have right now.

Thank you for your hugs.  David said he got 2 'bro hugs' this week!
