Kathie has an appointment at 1 at IU for a consult for surgery - but nothing is being done today (unless Kathie starts feeling poorly again).
Kathie had a peaceful sleep, sleeping longer than Bob by about 3-4 hours.
No word yet from M.D. Anderson. The one researcher "here" (at IU), that Bob asked the blunt question "Where would you go?" the guy responded, "Here, at IU -- and I wouldn't say that about every cancer, but I would about Colon Cancer." That brought a bit of confidence.
To add insult to injury, Kathie was diagnosed with basal skin cancer, which will also require surgery... but that's not the pressing matter at this moment.
Fr. Dan (Kathie and Bob's parish priest for about 9 years) joined Bob, Kathie and Lauren at home today to chat for a bit and get an anointing of the sick. He told a very positive story concerning another cancer patient who realized that cancer was just her cross, not a call to death (the woman in his story was told she had a few more days - she lived 25 more years).
More updates after the consult.
