the waiting

We are waiting for the results and the doctor to call us back. Hunter had all his tests done last week with little troubles. The only real problem was the drink he had to gag down for the CT exam. To be honest the gastrografin is tastes terrible and he did well to get down what he could.

Jessica called the docs office today four time with no response from the doctor. I don't know about you but when I call the doctor or my friend I expect a call back. We are not talking about a tee time here, we are talking about the health of our son which, by the way, if you looked at him you could not tell there was anything wrong with him. He is still recovering from his bowel surgery and has not regained all his strength back but he can somehow manage to gather enough strength to fight with his sister from time to time.

We were given a fish tank by the neighbor who was trying to clean out his attic, thanks Craig. The kids have had fun preparing the tank for the the sharks they want to get. It is funny but the interaction between the kids in relation to hunters cancer just cracks me up. Hunter was scooping out the bottom rocks feverishly and placing them in a bucket while the others were talking about Kaitlins illness. Really she did not have a illness, she had gone to water country, over did it, and her head hurt. The topic came up quickly about Hunter having an illness. He said without skipping a beat "Yea... cancer" all the while scooping out rocks from the tank. I guess kids really have no grasp on what cancer is and the power it can have on lives. I relate that to the way kids view money. They think it grows on trees or just at the bank and when you need more you just "go to the bank and ask the lady for more money". Any how the tank is up and running. I am trying to get the water stabilized in preparation for jaws.

We will know something hopefully tomorrow if I have to go down the doctors office and collar him myself although Jessica will probably beat me to the punch. Keep up the prayers and well wishes. We really do hear them.
