Playing Hooky

(Our beautiful Fall centerpiece - thanks, Mom!)


Dad and I met with his oncologist last Thursday to discuss pain management and assessment of Dad's health. We are continuing to use pain "patches" on his left leg/hip to help with the pain. This method helps with surface pain but not deep pain, so Dad has continued to take pain medicine, as well.

Additionally, because Dad got such a heavy dose of chemo the week before, we decided to play hooky last week and give Dad a week off. We will go back to the doctor this Thursday. Thanks for all the continued support! We are looking forward to seeing many of you in Kansas City over Thanksgiving.
