We just saw Glen a couple of days ago. After Courtney's first half day of high school, we picked her up and headed to McMinnville. We stopped in Liberty on our way and picked up 300 ears of fresh corn and continued to Peggy's house to deliver the corn and help shuck it. It takes quite a while to process that much corn...WHEW! After attending to some other necessary business the first few hours, Glen even helped us shuck the last box of corn.
He has no hair on his head [usuallly wears a cap now]; he is much weaker; and he has lost over 30 pounds so far. BUT considering the beating his body has taken, he looked pretty good. He was suppose to have his second round of chemo this last Tuesday, but it has been postponed until Mon the 13th. Because of how his body reacted the second week after chemo last time, the docs didn't feel his body could handle next week's surgery if he had the next round of chemo. So, they will have the surgery next Wed the 8th at Sarrah Cannon to remove the temporary stent [it cannot stay in his body longer than 6 weeks] and also remove his feeding tube and then administer the second round of chemo the following week.
Thanks as always for all the prayers and support!!!!!!
