Chemo, Doctor Appt

Matt and Casey in their new Home!!


Matt saw Dr. Holen this Wednesday. He had a good check up. Dr. Holen said all his numbers were good. We talked about when to have his next CT-scan and tumor marker test. Matt's insurance as of the first of the year will cover more so we decided to wait until January. Matt will have his tumor marker test and CT-Scan on January 17 and Doctor appointment on January 19. Until then he will continue to do chemo every other week.

The week of Chemo takes a lot of Matt. He is tired and nauseous a lot. Matt is very strong and he continues to work through all his physical aliments. Now that Matt and Casey are in the house they are working on getting settled. There is a lot to do before Christmas and Matt and Casey are trying to get as much done as they can.

Due to the side effects of the cold Matt wears a face mask while he is outside. The cold hurts his face and finger tips. So when he goes outside he has his face mask and gloves to cover all his skin. It helps to tolerate the cold. The extra medication he is taking during chemo for the cold are also helping.

Dear God please be with Matt and help heal his body. Thank you for all your prayers.

Congrats, can't wait to actually see your new home. How about a video? It was great to see you two again, even if you took my Tequila.....I did end up with the better gift, and your father-in-law got his tequila back.

Have a wonderful Christmas.
Love you
