Good afternoon. 

I am so sorry I haven't updated in so long. I hope everyone had a Happy Thanksgiving. We did. It was the 8 of us, and it was a good day. Rachel and I made cookies the week before, and we had a few more to make Thanksgiving morning. I can't believe another Thanksgiving has come and gone. We do have so much to be thankful for. Life is not perfect, but we are still thankful for so much. 

David is now on the antibiotics~~2 VERY strong ones! He will be on them for another week, then 2 weeks of a probiotic. Please pray for him as he is having side effects of the antibiotic. He is still working, and struggling with the side effects at work is NOT fun. Just please pray for him. Thanks. 

Could you also please pray for my precious granddaughter? She has been sick for a few days now. My son says she is a trooper and tries really hard for life to be normal, but it is obvious that she doesn't feel well. Yesterday Lucy stayed home with her, today Jeremy stayed home. Please pray that she is back to her healthy self soon! Thank you. 

Well, that is about it for now. Thank you for your prayers, please keep them coming. Thanks for visiting and checking in on David and the Koury Klan. God bless you all. We love you.

When many people hear childhood cancer, they may only think of St. Jude and TV ads with cancer kids with round faces (from steroids) and bald heads (from chemo). Yet while it is a leading childhood cancer research center, St. Jude doesn't work exclusively on cancer research and treats less than 5% of all children with cancer. Or perhaps you think of the American Cancer Society and its support for childhood cancer? Unfortunately, in 2008, with $1,078 million of public support; the ACS gave only $4.2 million to childhood cancer research, less than 1/2 a penny for each dollar of support.
