Hello to all. Mark is doing well. He is certainly enjoying the time off of chemo. We are both excited about upcoming surgery and nervous as well. Mark remembers well the pain that was involved. The heated chemo is very painful. They put in spinal blocks while under general anesthesia and leave them in to help control the pain because it is such severe pain. It was quite an ordeal last May and took months to recover from. I don't mean to sound so negative because we're excited that they've decided to do the surgery and to procede with the heated chemo which gives Mark another chance at beating this cancer.
Colton was released from the hospital Saturday evening and has bounced back quickly. It turned out not to be Salmonella or Shigella, but Pseudomonas. He is back to his usual self.
We are leaving tomorrow afternoon/evening for Universal Studios for a short trip before school starts on the 10th.
Continue to pray for Mark as always. God bless!!!!!
