I wanted to post a quick note to let all of you know that Angela is doing very well. She continues physical therapy 3 times a week and she has also hired a personal trainer to help her at the local YMCA.
This is an off week of chemo and doctors appointments. Her next visit to Duke is June 15Th. At that time they'll discuss her treatment plan and the progress she has made. As of now, there is no plan to change any of the medications ~ just a follow-up visit.
I am sure all of you have seen the news about Ted Kennedy and his battle with brain cancer. Just an FYI, he and Angela have the same type of cancer. He had surgery at Duke and is being treated there. So, when you learn through the news about his illness, you are learning about Angela too.
On a more personal note, the boys are out of school. Angela has hired a college girl (Courtney) to nanny the children during the week. The kids love Courtney (Angela too) and they are very excited to have her!!! All three of the kids are taking swimming lessons and loving it! Christian's birthday party was great and he was excited about all of this toys!!!
As always, thanks for all of your thoughts and prayers. They mean more than you could ever realize. You all have helped Angela get to the point that she is now and for that I thank you!
Take care and until next time ~ God Bless All Of You,

Hello Angela
Glad to hear that you are able to enjoy the summer. Hope that on your next trip to Duke that you continue to get only good news. We continue to pray for all of you, I know that you are looking forward to the day that all of the chemo,therapy & docters are just an unpleasant memory, not a daily occurance.
Thanks to Tammy,David, John Michael & Steele for keeping everyone updated..Hope to see everyone this summer.

David and Angela,
Sorry I haven't written in a while. Camp is in full swing and our lives are crazy. But our prayers continue to lift you up and we are so thankful for a wonderful summer for you guys and for great help as well! As soon as I heard about Senator Kennedy, I knew it was the same battle.
Our Father, we come to you this morning with thankful hearts for progress made, for restoration of movement and for wonderful family times. We thank you for your presence in all our lives daily.
In His Precious Name,
Amen
Happy OFF Week,
