I will start today’s blog with one reference comment to yesterday as I will not reference this ever again. All the experience at the store and we bought the wrong size!! I think I’ll send somebody else back to the store.
Cathy struggled the last two nights with pain. I’m working to ease things and am hopeful that I have a good plan for tonight. While we were in the hospital today, we met with a nutritional expert. Cathy has had a very healthy diet over the last number of years and has minimized fat and carbohydrate intake. Today she was told that these foods would speed up recovery. In fact, as Cathy has been losing about a pound per day, she needs these items to remain healthy. Tonight she ate well with a good helping of southern fried chicken due to the good cooking of Lynn (not the other Lynne). Cathy also ate a nice helping of ice cream with banana. I forgot to add the requested chocolate chips and was sent back to the kitchen. This is a great sign of progress!
Prayer requests
- Improved appetite
- Good sleep (for the both of us)
- A clear plan when we meet with the doctor tomorrow

Hey Dan,
I've had the same situation in
the dreaded "aisle".Just treat it
like getting an oil filter for your
imaginary 68 Roadrunner!! Bonnie,Tracy and I went to Grand Haven to see the sunset.Praying that
you and Cath have many more sunsets to enjoy.
Love, Doug,Bonnie,and Tracy
Thank you for the updates. Love your comments. You & Cathy are right there in the center of God's hands. Bless you both.
Dear Cathy and Dan,
So sorry to hear the two of you have to deal with this. You are in my prayers and I will be talking with Christy. I am glad Dave and I were able to meet you last November. Wish I lived closer so I could help you out.
Blessing, Linda Champion
Let it be forgotten, as a flower is forgotten,
Forgotten as a fire that once was singing gold,
Let it be forgotten for ever and ever,
Time is a kind friend, he will make us old.
If anyone asks, say it was forgotten long and long ago,
As a flower, as a fire, as a hushed footfall in a long-forgotten snow.
by Sara Teasdale
...let this awful illness be forgotten someday too.
