Peru
Many of you know that in between blood drawing (October 1) and results getting (October 19), I took a group to Peru to work in a village there. Most people think I go to places like Machu Picchu, like the photo above. Nope. That was taken in the Inca Market in Lima, standing in front of a big photo. Maybe one day. Where I go is in the coastal desert region. It looks a lot different.
It is beautiful in its own right, and the people are great! I have many friends there. For those of you that like fall weather, the temps pretty well match our October-in-Augusta temps.
Health Bump
The results from the earlier blood draw were not definitive enough, but today the good folks at Emory took plenty of samples and my wife and I had a good conversation with the doctor and nurses. Any of you who have hit a major bump in the medical road know that tests often beget tests. So, our next step is a PET scan as soon as we can get it scheduled. Then, if the blood work and the scan leads in this direction, we’ll add a couple of more medications to what I am taking now. For now we wait.
I will keep you posted here. If you just do email, you can subscribe to the blog. If you do Facebook, I will put links to blog posts there.
Prayers are greatly needed and appreciated.
