I thought I’d better send a quick note to let everyone know that Mark got his test results today. He’s cancer-free!!! The VA decided that rather than making him come down to Seattle on my birthday, they’d just call him today and let him know their findings. Needless to say, we were thrilled. Thank you, Jesus!
We got up early this morning and had a nice continental breakfast at the Days Inn Hotel. Then we went to the VA where Mark had some testing done. We won’t know the full results for a couple weeks yet, but the preliminary examination sounded good. They even joked with him and draped his hospital gown over his arm like Caesar! I drove us home and had to stop at a rest stop for a nap, but we’re home now and looking forward to getting back to business as usual. Please pray that the results of Mark’s tests will be good. Thanks!
This morning I had a hand therapy appointment and got the big bandage cut off my right hand. Yay!!! Then we drove down to Seattle for Mark’s medical appointment which will be tomorrow morning. We arrived sooner than we could check into our hotel, so we spent a fun afternoon sightseeing. Here are some pictures: Continue reading

Mark was supposed to have a medical appointment at the VA in Seattle this morning at 9:00. That meant we had to get up at 5:30 this morning. Seattle is a two hour trip from Birch Bay, but we didn’t know what the traffic would be like as we got closer to Seattle so we left early. Continue reading
This morning Mark and I picked my friend, Wendy, up at Aunt Marg’s house — they had been having a good visit — and took her with us to my hand surgeon appointment. He has got to be the fastest doctor in the world. (He doesn’t even close the office door!) He took the Band-Aid off my wrist, asked if I wanted him to operate on my other wrist, and when I said I wasn’t sure, he said, “Call me when you decide,” and I was out the door! Continue reading
Just wanted to say a brief “Hey!” to all of you who have sent your prayers and wishes for me. My hands are beginning to show signs of improvement. A big thanks goes out to Mark who has kept me connected with you all, and to Aunt Marg who has been a big help throughout this week. It’s not over yet, but I am encouraged! –Denise
Well her I am again. Denise is still to lame to do her own blog so I’m filling in again. Continue reading
