a new week has begun
and things are pretty good. the steroids are fixing one thing (the liver) and messing with some other things, but all fixable things. the most obvious fix will be that tim's platelets are falling rapidly-the reason he would need platelets is to prevent or stop bleeding (like nose bleeds and bruising). they have gone from up over 100 to 60 to 40 and are still falling. once they get to 10 or below he will get a platelet transfusion, which only takes about one hour once they are prepared (by the wonderful lab).
other than that, the other stuff looks pretty good. they seem pleased.
today the twins leave for youth camp-and megan is still at the beach-we have a nice quiet week without the kids (?). i think tim will really miss them this week...he enjoys just watching the activity around the house. they will come out and sit with him and watch sports with him-he likes that. sometimes they will walk with us too. they have really been great through this whole process. we have three wonderful girls.
well, it is early and i think i may try to get back to sleep for a little bit. the birds are chirping and the newspaper just arrived, but i still think i may catch a couple of winks.
enjoy your day.
tim and tammy

enjoy the peace and quite! I know it's hard to be away from your girls but it'll be good for all of you.
We'll get a taste of that ourselves next week when our Kelsey goes to Creation & Steph visits with her aunt and cousin. I enjoy the peace and quite- Stephen tends to be like Tim and really misses the girls when they are away-Tell Tim we're continuing to think about him daily and call if you need
anything
Tell Tim to enjoy the peace and quiet. He will need his strength for when the girls get home. God is good. He is strengthening Tim every day, one day at a time. Tammy, you need your rest this week also!!! Rest and enjoy. Let God refresh your mind and body. We love you.
