July 29

Hello to all. We are still improving daily. Mark is getting stronger with each passing day. He still runs out of gas easily and finds that simple things he used to take for granted are much more difficult now, but that should get easier with time. He seems to have a better appetite. He constantly battles the ileostomy and I think things will get much better after that is reversed.

Mark has his CT scan scheduled for early tomorrow morning. They are going to take a look and see what his abdomen and pelvis look like. They saw a fluid collection on the earlier test and they want to take a better look at it. We will see what happens from there. It is all a waiting game from here. Hopefully if we get the films off tomorrow by noon and overnight them ourselves, we will have word from Pittsburgh by week's end.

Calen got his Drake team assignment today and that was exciting. They have meet the teacher night next week in the afternoon and the elementary school's will be in the evening. I can't believe school will be starting soon. I don't know where the summer went.

Continue to keep Mark in your prayers. We hope for good news from the CT scan and healing of the fistula so that they can get rid of the ileostomy soon. God bless!!!
