Friday...what a day

Still waiting!! The surgeons were not at the meeting on Thursday so Daves case could not be presented. They will present it on Tuesday afternoon. So we should know something Wednesday.

Soooo.....instead of waiting this out in Houston, we packed up and we are almost home. We left around noon on Friday and it was an interesting day to say the least. We forgot about Mardi Gras.....I 10 was a nightmare. Then we ran into some rain. As I type we are still 5 hours from home and it is 11:04. We were delayed 3 hours by the traffic on I 10. But we are so looking forward to being at home for a little while. When the nurse called and said we wouldn't know anything till at least Wednesday, we packed in a mad rush and were out the door in 30 minutes. We have talked to several of you on our way today, but really wanted it to be a complete surprise that we were coming home. So SURPRISE!!! by the time this is posted we will be home sweet home or very close to home. We are gonna enjoy being at our house, going to church, and hopefully seeing some of you. Dave is still going to have to be careful to avoid getting sick. He is only a week out from chemo and his numbers were still kinda low. If he gets sick he will have to fly back to Houston and he really wants to be home for a while. Now for a few hours of sleep.

I hope you have a wonderful trip at home. We are going to Alabama next Thursday for Spring Break and we cannot wait, I guess Alabama will always be our home. We are so busy when we are there that the time just flies. Hope your trip is absolutely wonderful.

There is no better place like home. You truly appreciate everything in life but your home is top notch. The feeling of coming home after spending so much time away especially when your away dealing with chemo, radiation,and doctor appointment...is the best feeling ever! A sense of calmness and security comes into your life. I know you will all enjoy being home. Positive vibes go out to you all.
