Hi from the "Daniel's Den"

Hello friends and family,

Sorry we haven't updated in over a week . . . seems that this year is zooming fast. Trudy is feeling well and we want to keep you abreast of the latest news.

Trudy met with Dr. Wold (Alexandria, LA) on Thursday. Her progress continues to be positive and Dr. Wold is supportive in all of our efforts. We are presently "in charge" of doing all of her treatments with the exception of the one day per month IV chemo that she has to go to the Oncology Care Center for the short infusion. Also, we choose only a couple of days each month to come in for labs. So far, so good!

By the way, Trudy is the Interim Pianist at our church for the next several weeks. Our church is blessed to have a simply outstanding regular pianist (who is taking some time off to recover from a back procedure) . . . and we are blessed that Trudy can step right in to take care of this need . . . and, that she FEELS well enough to take on such a significant responsibility! (Oh, and Trudy is doing a superb job) Thank you, Lord.

Our prayer request is that Trudy becomes stronger and stronger, that the Leukemia stays away, and that all of this will be further confirmed when we go to M. D. Anderson Hospital on the Thirty-first, for labs, bone marrow aspiration, and consult with Dr. Charles Koller. Thanks so very much for your prayers.

Blessings,
Trudy and Robert
