Once again our hearts are filled with light. With relief. With great hope. Andy’s scans of last Tuesday showed continued shrinking of the tumors. It was so good to get that news, again.
And so on a whim we called our dear friends in Minneapolis who agreed wholeheartedly to meet us for the weekend in Madison. To celebrate, to decompress, to talk and play and rejoice (oh, and get Iris a new violin too- those monkey arms are getting so long!).
And so we went and it was good. For the kids: time to swim in the hotel pool, play babies, and jump on the beds while yelling “gerbil pee” at the top of their lungs. (Don’t ask me, but they sure thought it was funny). For the adults: much needed time to reconnect, talk and eat good food. It was perfect.
Now it’s back to waiting for Mayo docs to call with a plan for what next. We suspect more chemo but we have questions, as always. We’ll keep you posted.
Thank you, thank you for your prayers, your intentions, your gentle unending support. You all make this long road so much easier.
