We had a wonderful visit with the pulmonary doctor today even though the news was not good. Walt has not one friend of Murphy, but two. Oh well. It doesn't change much. Still don't know if they are independent of the one in the esophagus or metastasis, but again it doesn't matter because our treatment would be the same. We have such a close relationship with our doctor that it was very hard on him. He did save our daughters life after all and Walt's too. He was so kind and understanding of what we want to do and he will do any follow up needed.
We made it to our Sunday morning meeting yesterday. So many sad faces, but everyone was happy to see Walt even though there is about 20 lbs less of him to see. He fit into a suit that he hasn't worn in years and he outgrew right after he got it. It's like he is able to shop in his own closet. I was able to go out in service this morning because we have a wonderful friend from Placerville, Ca. visiting to help out. David chauffeured us to the doctor and to get more oxygen for Walt. Then he put up a new ceiling fan in the bedroom. What a guy.
We are truly feeling the strength needed to endure all of this bad news. Keep those prayers coming because it is the very best that any of us can do. We love you all.
