Roger Slideshow

A brief update:

Dad returned home on Saturday, as planned. He's exhausted, but hasn't suffered any serious side-effects this time around. The most encouraging news is that the latest labs showed still lower protein levels, indicating that the chemo has been increasingly effective in fighting the cancer. These numbers are actually the lowest they've been in years, comparable to the protein levels following the stem cell transplant four (?) years ago.

Due to room renovations, Dad ended up in another one of those "luxury suites" for the latter part of the week. Marble sinks, walnut molding, the works. Everything but a Louis XV armoire and a bowling alley in the basement.

One more round to go, scheduled to begin three weeks from tomorrow.

Andrew, and all the Clark family,

Thanks for keeping us up to date so we can both pray and be encouraged. It has been a few years since I have seen many of you, but Roger and all of you are still in my thoughts and prayers.
