Test Day

David went with Ian to his day of tests on Friday since Helen and I were having our last rehearsal for this weekend's concerts we're singing in. I talked to Ian via cell phone several times through the day, which was great, and he really did handle it all well. Here's David's update:

Hello,

Just a brief update. I took Ian to Stanford Friday for EKG, Echocardiogram, CT scan and PET scan. Ian couldn't eat all day and stopped drinking from 11:30 till 7. It was a long day and he handled it like a champ. We went to Max's Opera Cafe for dinner, very good! We go back on Tues to get results and have another test and placement of a PICC Line. After that, Ian won't be able to swim until the PICC Line is removed...this is how they'll take blood samples and administer the chemo.

Ian's appears happy and well adjusted considering what he's going through. We're very thankful and blessed.

Our church and local community came over and supported us today by helping us deal with a yard run amok...truly a wonderful blessing. Perhaps we'll get some photos posted on Facebook.

Peace, David
