Dear friends and family,
Well, we are back on track!
John has a date, pre-op the 13th of June with surgery on the 14th.
As many of you know he is ready to get going-putting it mildly!
We will have a nice apartment a couple miles from the hospital. It looks beautiful.
My daughter, Charlotte, the good, will be coming down on the 13th and staying for about 5 days. I really appreciate-certainly not a strong enough word for how I feel about her coming to be with me at this difficult time. She is leaving her 3 and 6 year olds at home with a sitter she has gottento come in for the occasion.
I'll never be able to "repay" her. She was my right arm when John went thru open heart surgery two years ago.
I know she will have me in shape as she likes to distract me by walking me; yes, all I lack is a collar and leash.
Now my challenge is to keep John upright until then. I am looking for a Michelin man costume!
John is in good spirits. He is lucky to not be feeling any of the typical symptoms that come with pancreatic cancer. This is probably why it is normally so quick; when you know it, it is too late to cure it
We are in a good place spiritually and physically. God has been good to us and we are counting on him to bring us thru this little inconvenience.
Lots of love and hugs to all you wonderful people. We have so appreciated your messages of love, concern and caring. Keep them up. This is IT!
Jackie and John
