Joe has been doing better the last few days. He tried to eat something by mouth tonight but vomited so that did not work. He also has not taken any pain medicine or nausea medicine today (He's hard headed). Last night about 2am he got out of bed and fell by the dresser. He hit his head and back on the dresser. I got him off the floor and back in bed and asked him why he got up and he said to make a candy bar? I think the fall woke him up real fast because he hit really hard. He seemed ok when I left for work this morning and the kids were here all day with him because school was out. He is down to 155lbs now and hopefully will start gaining weight soon. I took some pictures of him last Monday and will try to have them developed this weekend to show ya'll how skinny he is now. I will have to find a before picture to put beside it. He is still eating by feeding tube but he really wants to eat by mouth and it is not possible yet.

Till Tomorrow,
Crystal

our god is such a big god. to be in pain is a small price to pay for life but very tiring and restless, i am sure. rest when you can, crystal. you have a lot on your shoulders.

i am praying for tissue healing for joe so he can eat thanksgiving dinner.

tell him to get better so he can come home to florida and eat momma's pecan pie.

love you,

a. terri

I just found out Saturday about the cancer. Since I have been in your shoes with HoJo's cancer, I know how stressed you must be. If there is anything at all that I can do for you, please let me know. You are in my prayers.
