Finally!!


Good evening. 

Well, I finally got a hold of Connie. She said that everything is the same, and I will be getting the reports in the mail this week. Once I get those reports, I will let you know what they say. But at least we know that David is still stable, no new nodules!! Yay!! 

I realized I never posted about David's appointment in San Francisco. It went well. We were told David didn't need an xray, but we didn't think that sounded right. Well, they have a new computer system and we DID need to get an xray. We just said we would go after David's appointment. As far as the appointment went, Dr. O'Donnell was so happy to see David, as usual. He was the first one to tell us that David wouldn't live 5 years. He always lights up when he sees David, and gets the biggest smile on his face!! Twice in this appointment he said to David, "You make me proud." He said David's legs are about 3mm different, but that is no big deal. He said it isn't even enough to need a lift in his shoe. He was so glad to see David alive and walking!! After the appointment we went to get the xray. Usually we are in and out in about 15 minutes. Well, after over an hour; with people who came after us being seen; Bryon asked how much longer it would be. Well, to make a long story short, they lost the paperwork! So they had to print up another order, and David got his xray! It was frustrating because we wanted to go home!! Anyway, I got a call from Dr. O'Donnell the next day and we were told there is no sign of a local recurrence!! Oh, we already knew that, because Dr. O'Donnell said that David is so thin that a local recurrence could never hide, it would be very obvious!! So that is good news. All good news on David's scans!! God is definitely not finished with David yet!! 

I thank you for your prayers, they are working!! We need to just keep praying that David's scans continue to be stable! Thanks again! 

Update on the probiotic David is taking.....it's not working, he is still having the same issues. I guess the next step is call the GI doctor and go ahead with the antibiotic/probiotic route. Grrrr. We were really hoping the probiotic would work. Please continue to pray for David's health. Thanks! 

Thank you for visiting and checking in on David. Sorry I didn't update sooner, I wanted to get the news from Connie before I did. Please continue to pray for David and the Koury family. Some unspoken prayer requests; God knows what they are. Thank you. God bless you all. We love you.

Hope is ours for the taking every single minute. It's the assurance that things will make sense when there's no sense to make of things.
