Seis de Mayo

Dad is still marching out of the woods - well, walking maybe, but on his way out.

He is having a test today to get a better look at his pancreas and gall bladder. One doctor told us he doesn't think the test will tell us any more than they already know. He just has to keep getting stronger so he can face surgery. Eventually, they will take out his gall bladder, but not today or tomorrow. It could be weeks, but his numbers and his ability to communicate are improving.

The fact that he is "speaking" to us is great. Sometimes we can't understand what he is saying but like Michael says, you can believe it's something clever! He definitely has his sense of humor and he lifts our spirits when he smiles and blows a kiss.

We'll give him your best wishes. If you want to post, please do, we will read him the entries. The instructions are in his "about me" blurb, but if you have questions send me an email or give me a call.

My dad says to tell you "ghushsdjh mmffmmff klkkkkk", which means he loves you very much.
We are getting very good at translation as you can see.

Peace,

Michelle
