Mark continues to have the abdominal pain. We called Dr. Farmer's office and they did not feel it was worrisome. It is probably the primary tumor pressing on a nerve and we hope with more chemo, the tumor will shrink and the pain will subside. He is more comfortable today thanks to Lortab. It is controlling the pain and he is in better spirits. Mark had a long chat with John, a long time childhood friend and former Bruin teammate, which cheered him up. He also received a very inspiring email from Dr. Ederington, and phone calls from Dr. Stanhouse and Christoph (I mean Dr. Hinkleman) today.
We are continuing to find new dishes to make on Mark's restrictive diet. It is becoming somewhat easier, but still poses many challenges for us. His appetite has been a little better today as well.
Mark and I feel very blessed to have such great family and friends supporting us through this difficult journey. Thanks again for all the support and wonderful comments on the blog.
God bless!!!!

Mark, I am beginning to pull for Oklahoma in your honor. Please get this kick and get back to work soon so I can stop this Sooner nonsense!
Shelley, Parker-Kate, Payton and I have you in our prayers daily.
Go Sooners?
