Update from the doctor visit

We flew back to Houston yesterday and met with Dr. Ravi today.  He said NO MORE CHEMO !!!!   The next step is meeting with the urologist and surgeon and then the radiation therapist.  So overall this has been a good day.  We are flying back home tonight and will return to Houston around May 10th for all those appointments.  Dave is looking forward to his hair growing back, the swelling  going away, and the pain and fatigue in his legs going away.  I told him i was going to put a survey box on the blog to see what people thought his hair would come back like......curly, grey :).........we'll see.

I also wanted to say how sad we have been about the tornado damage in Alabama. It has been unbelievable seeing the pictures from all over the state.  We continue to pray for the people who lost everything.

So happy for your wonderful news! You all continue to be in our thoughts and prayers. Hopefully you will be home for good soon. We can't wait to have you back at Donoho.

I vote for bright, flaming red hair with many curls. My sister's hair was straight all her life, but it came back curly after chemo. She still doesn't have a gray hair.

I wish safe travels for you and continued great news.
