SUNDAY, NOVEMBER 13, 2011

Good evening.

I am sorry I haven't updated before now, we have been very busy.

I finally got the call and David had his scans on Friday, 11/11/11. I wasn't able to let you know before hand as we were just too busy. He had them done at Renown in Reno. He had an echo at 10:00, chest CT around 1:30, and bone scan around 2:30. It went ok, but the echo seemed to take an awfully long time. It was really hard to go to Renown, because they don't know David's history. When the nuclear med tech was administering David's bone scan she said, "I see an injury to his femur...." I told her he has no femur! She asked what was in there and I told her a titanium rod. She said then she won't rescan looking for a bone! I thought, are you kidding me?!?! It was just frustrating because none of them know his history! *sigh* At least the scans are over, for now. They were kinda funny. They told us our co-pay was almost $3,000, and looked at us like "how would you like to pay that?" Pray we can come up with the money for that one! I guess our Christmas gift as a family is the fact that David is alive, and we have Elena!! Life is good.

David has his oncology appointment on the 29th, so I guess we will get the results then. I hate having to wait that long, but what can I do? Please pray that we get the results of 'stable' disease. Thanks.

Please, please pray for David. It has been a sucky day. I posted on Facebook that one of David's cats died tonight. It was my favorite cat, the kind of cat I always wanted! His name was Milo, and he was white with bright blue eyes! Beautiful cat! Please pray for David. He has, technically, lost 3 pets in the past 8 months. One of them was Jeremy's dog, but David loved Spike; and Spike lived here for 5 or so years before Jeremy took him to his house. Anyway, please pray for David. Thanks.

I am not really in a 'chatty' mood, so I will close for now. Thank you for visiting and checking up on David and the Koury Klan. God bless you all. We love you.
