Salt lake City

Today Curt and I traveled to Salt Lake. We left at 6:30 A.M. Tishanna was in charge of the house and the kids (Clyde and Joplin). Curt had an appointment to do labs at noon and see Dr. Zangari at 2:00 P.M.  We have been anticipating this appointment hoping we could find out if the chemo is working and hopefully put the cancer in remission. It rained most of the way to Salt Lake, but we got to Geralyn and Wayne's house at about 9:50 A. M.  We had a nice, but short visit then headed up to Denise and Lee's house.  Lee had ordered a Parowan Rock Church from Curt and we had one to deliver to them.  They loved it.  We left there and got up to Huntsman right before twelve.  All they needed to do then was to draw labs so we were in and out of there really quick.  We had some time so we went to Capitol Ceramics and Curt picked up some supplies for making more churches. We went back to Huntsman and saw Dr. Zangari. He looked at the labs and could still see some cancer cells but over all he said that Curt was progressing just as he should. Guess that's all we can hope for right now. The Dr. is going to have Curt continue the chemo in Cedar City on the same schedule that he was on  for the last 3 1/2 months. Next Thursday, the 29th, Curt will go to Cedar and see Dr. Te the Oncologist there. He will then go to the hospital in the infusion lab and have his chemo by IV.  He will go every week for 4 weeks then off for 2,  on for 4, off 2, on for four more then we will go  back up to Huntsman again and see if the levels are down. Dr. Zangari was very hopeful that everything was going as planned. After we were done there we just booked it home.  No rain this time and I drove most of the way.  Curt spelled me for a while  and we got home at about 6:45 P.M.  What a long day!  He is already sleeping and I was still awake so that's why I'm here adding to the blog.  Have a good night to all.
