Angela's tumor is stable once again. Her doctor is going to keep her on the same chemo cocktail. As I described how Angela took the news to a friend yesterday, I used words like bitter-sweet and happy-sad. Since our last visit to Duke when we had received bad news, it has been a struggle to get Angela engaged back into "living". Prior to the last visit she was going to physical therapy twice a week. In the last 2 months she has only went once. Please pray this good news will recharge her batteries and motivate her to continue the fight.
Yesterday our visit ran over 4 hours late and we missed our flight. I booked a mid afternoon flight today; and Angela and I took this opportunity to sleep late.
We did have a great time at SeaWorld. Unfortunately Angela just could not muster the energy to go to the park with kids. We would like to express our gratitude and give a REALLY BIG THANKS to my sister (Diane), my niece (Karlie) and John Michael for going with us! Ah the comical stories I could tell about the trip ... right John Michael .... but maybe another time.
Thanks again for all your prayers, support and post.

Praise God, Praise God. Angela I am so relieved for you. One small step in this continuing journey.
Father how I praise you for answering the prayers that have been offered on behalf of this precious family. Your promises hold true and for that I am grateful. Lord I ask that you continue to show yourself in their lives and that you would continue to comfort them when they are facing obstacles. Lord you alone are worthy all glory, honor and praise.
I will continue to pray that you both stay strong and positive through all of this. I pray that your strength will build and in spite of the way things appear, remember God is always in charge and bigger than any problem you have.
May God bless you both and your sweet children.

Hey Angela,
Happy Monday!!! I hope this week is starting off well!! Did you make it back to P.T. yet???? I know that you will get back to it when you are ready.

Angela, I am so glad to hear the good news. I spoke to Tammy yesterday while she was at the ball game. Richard Williams was tailgaiting with her called me and I was able to catch up a little with Tammy. I hope the birthday party went well today. I continue to pray for you every day that God will comfort and bless you. You hang in there.
