We're Out!

Hey everyone! We are now out of the hospital and enjoying our new home. On Monday the repeat cultures came back negative, leading the doctors to think that it was only a contaminated sample to begin with. This means we were there a whole week and there was no infection! Argggg! He did have a fever though, which the doctor couldn't explain. I just think it was from teething or something. Tim got 4 teeth in one week, and yesterday he got 2 more! So at least we get to come home for a week before we have to go back. Next week is the fourth and hopefully final round of chemo! I am so excited you have no idea! He has a CT scan booked for Nov 25 but no word yet on the MRI.


We are much more settled now as the house gets more and more finished. I am learning how to use my new kitchen. The stove is a cookstop with all touch buttons, no knobs. It will take some practice. Hopefully laundry will be hooked up tomorrow and we should be getting the dishwasher. It's amazing what you take for granted until you no longer have it.


We enjoyed the weather the last few days, taking some time to try out the swing and meet the kids next door. Tim is totally his old self, Mr. Happy. He is turning into quite the ham as his little character is shining thru. He is always making us laugh and pulling faces and waving his arms around frantically.


That's all for now folks...

HI Shauna, please give Kate and Tim a big hug and kiss from all of us. I am very happy that Tim is doing better now and that you guys at the new house...I understand it must be very hard to go through all this, but at least your families are there for you guys...I know is still hard, but always think of this bible verse
1 Corinthians 13:4-7
4Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.........May God continue to bless you, and give you the strenght every day my "amiguita"...luv...Yasy
