We met with Dr. Dan this morning. Zach's comfort is top priority and he will no longer continue with any treatments. We will interview a few hospice facilities next week. It will nice to have them on board and they will be able to provide a full "home pharmacy." Zach plans to continue teaching and coaching for as along as he is able.
We had a nice pre-Thanksgiving pizza feast on Wednesday night with the Ingersolls. Thursday afternoon we went to Kris' house and spent a lively afternoon with more family. Oliver and Max had a fantastic time! Zach was in quite a bit of pain both days. But he now has strict instructions not to be afraid to take his pain medication. He is a different guy when he is nearly pain free!
Our dear friend Maxine May took family pictures for us a week ago. The new blog picture is one of them. She has a knack and quite a talent for getting everyone's attention!
Grandma Wendy and Oliver! She's such a Grandma--she made sure Oliver was fed and happy before she got a plate for herself :)
Uncle Matt and Zach.

Oliver enjoyed his Thanksgiving meal...especially the croissants.

Mitch and Jessica are newly engaged!
Mitch and I got a lot of flack for both wearing purple shirts.
My mom and I ran our annual 5K Turkey Run again this year.
Many months ago my sweet aunt shared this with me: "Sometimes God calms the storm. Sometimes He lets the storm rage and calms His child." I have reminded myself of this over and over this past week. He is in control and we WILL be okay.
