Once again, thanks for your prayers. We had another good day meeting with the doctors at HUP, both the radiation specialist and the neuro-oncologist. My dad really feels that God has led us to the right doctors.
Next Tuesday, June 27, my dad will go back to get everything set up for his radiation and chemotherapy (MRI, CAT-scan, lab work). Treatments will then begin on Wednesday, July 5. He will go to HUP 5 days a week for 6 weeks to receive radiation. At the same time, he will be taking oral chemo at home. After the 6 weeks of treatment followed by a 4 week rest period, he will begin a series of oral chemo and a clinical trial drug, spread out over a year.
Thank you for your ongoing prayers. We are dependent upon them.
Blessings,
Kris

Hey Mark, Nan & Kris - what a journey God has us on! But I have been encouraged this year reading through the Book of Psalms, where over and over again, the Psalmist talks of God's faithfulness and God's enduring love. I pray that you will continue to experience both of these on the journey. Know that Carol Anne and I love you all, and keep you in our prayers.

Mark and Nan,
We, too, appreciate being part of your blog family. It gives us more specifics to pray for. We both hold both of you up to our Heavenly Father, almost daily. We know from His promise that He is ALWAYS there for you; not even necessary for us to pray for that. But we do pray that you both will be able to absorb that presence. BTW, we're ready for a good Hand and Foot game.
Harold & Nancy
