Update

I went to Waco to visit Joanne on Sunday. Not doing very well. Stayed until late afternoon and went back to Austin.

Monday - decided to traverse through adverse weather conditions like threatening thunderstorms, flooding, and tornado watches to visit Joanne again. Realized that she needed me to stay overnight, so I made a late nite to Wal-Mart for accoutrements necessary for an overnighter. Got 4 hours sleep, up at 5:30am, James visited at 6am for an hour, Don in at 7:30pm, and Dr's visited at 8. No news yet. Back to Austin through adverse conditions (wanted to pull over in Round Rock during the worst weather yet to cry and have a nervous breakdown.) God I hate rain.

Got news this afternoon that the cancer is small cell. Now we just need to find out what stage it is in - or how far along. Talked with Don via phone, Mom not doing so well with the congestion.

I'm off work tomorrow as I'm going back tonight for another sleepover. I imagine I'll be out all week, so no blogging or e-mail checking for me.

Thanks all to those who have been sending prayers. Keep them coming.
