Great Weekend!

The weekend was busy with Ray and the boys working at the shop, mostly organizing things to sell--things not to sell. Ray's energy level is steadily improving, and his color (not so yellow) is getting better each day. We were able to attend Mass Sunday morning as a family at St. Joseph's, which we have not done in about three months. Ordinarily, we have been going to Mass at the hospital on Sat. evenings when Ray was up to it. The crowd there is small and he didn't feel so conspicuous wearing a mask.

Wed. morning we'll be returning to the oncologist for more blood work and also results from the bone marrow biopsy done last Wed. Also have an appt. to see the infection spec. There's about two hours between the appts., hopefully we'll be finished with the first so we can rush over to the next appt. and sit and wait some more.

Michele, (my sister) from Bryan, spent Sat. & Sun. here. She's now in Naz. visiting Mom for a couple days. We had a lot of catching up to do. Daniel's words to us were, "Do y'all EVER get done talking?" Eric & Leona came over Sat. night as well as Andy, Ryan, Heather & kids, Mom, Hugh and Nancy. Dropping in was Sr. Mary Michael and Sr. Mary Ana. It was a whirlwind of activity--a real "pick-me-up" for Ray.

Love you all,
Kim
