requested delay...

because tim is starting to feel human again and we still have not made our final decision on treatment we have requested a short delay. he was supposed to go in tomorrow to start round #6 of chemo but we have put that on hold for the time being.

this will be the first time in a LONG time that he actually feels good enough to try to get away for a few days...monday of next week he has a scheduled CT scan to check on that blood clot and then once they make a decision on whether or not they have to pull his central line we should be free for a few days.

we are starting to look for a few "inexpensive " days at the beach somewhere during the prime season...wish us luck. food shouldn't be too expensive...everyday of the week tim eats one pancake and two fried eggs!!!! (i am just not sure if the capital diner can live without him for a few days).

thanks for all your thoughts and prayers during this very difficult decision-making time. we have been round and round and round then we start over and go round again. keep praying for wisdom and guidance.

well...today i have to get the kids to the church for a city-outreach project week. they are living at our church all week and working with habitat for humanity today and other churches in a very large and very awesome outreach ending with a huge block party in the city on saturday. it is a very hard-working week that is very good for the kids (2/3rds of my kids LOVE IT...1/3rd is going under protest-oh well).

we will be in touch...

thanks for checking in.

Tam I was at that concert too singing "we didn't start the fire".
I wish I would have known you were there. But I got home around o230.

Praying for you guys. Enjoy your trip wherever it is. I heard the beaches are not busy. Hopefully you have no trouble.

Big hugs

Tammy....

Ref to O.C., because of schedules being what they are, it maybe more convient for you to contact me via e-mail rather than my cell.

It will be good for you guys to get away. And it looks like God is already providing a place for the Dewalts to have a short R&R.
I am praying for you and looking forward to seeing you in September.
Love from the West Coast.

I know you two need some time alone to deal with everything you have been going through and will be going through. We've been trying to find something but this is the busy time for vacations if we had more time I'm sure we could get you what you really need right at the beach.People do want to help if they are made aware. If nothing else comes available our offer is still there. We love you guys and are praying. Love Delores & Harold
