minor update...

the biopsy is finally scheduled for this thursday, jan 10th and the follow-up with the oncologist is the following monday, jan 14th.

for those of you still wondering about how he made out with the steroids and the esophagus...the steroids did seem to help a bit in the beginning, but he still is needing to take the morphine so that he can eat without so much pain and discomfort. (he is still on 100mg of prednisone every other day and that is making him feel kinda weird also...too many side effects of that stuff to mention).

but even though he isn't always feeling the best he still keeps on going...going to work and going to church...taking the kids to the farm show...watching the gazillion football games on tv...keeping up with the debates...and occasionally still makes cookies.

it is doubtful that we will know any new information about the arm tumor until next monday but i will update if we have any changes or more news.

thanks for checking in.

have a great day.

tim and tammy

I wish I lived closer so I could be of some use to the family. Besides, I'd love some "Tim-made" cookies!
Sending love and prayers and more prayers and more love from California.
I am so grateful that I can check this blog for updates.
