Big News out of Big D!

Daddy had his scans in Dallas on Tuesday morning followed by a drip of Retuxin, a type of chemo. (I probably spelled that wrong, but go with it!) Christy went with him to be sure and get ALL of the correct information. I know we were all a little worried about how much Daddy or Eric would remember! :-) Dr. Agura reviewed his scan results and he saw no cancer! He was very pleased and optimistic about the future. Daddy will also be able to stay in Austin to receive the next two doses of chemo, which are scheduled for the next 2 Tuesdays. I know he is very happy about that!

In 6 months, they will repeat the scans and 4 doses of chemo. Until then, he has a strict regimen of golfing, consuming "liquids," and preparing for his stints at the Texas and Oklahoma state fairs!
Love and thanks for all your prayers!

Wally on the Road!

(This picture of Edee has nothing to do with the post, but I couldn't help myself! She is just too cute, and she's ready for a visit from her Poppy Wally!!!)

Daddy is coming to Dallas next week for a scan and a little chemo. He is making his way to Burleson on Monday afternoon, and then Eric will be accompanying him to his appointment at Baylor on Tuesday morning. It is my first day of school, so I can't make it. TeeLee is also starting back to teaching at a brand new high school, where she will be the drill team director. I was at a brand new school last year, so I know what a thrill it is to be a in a beautiful new building! I'm a little worried about letting Eric and Daddy loose in the big city, but I am hoping that
they behave!! ;-)

We are looking forward to a great report, so please keep Daddy in your thoughts and prayers!

Love,
Wendee
