Bald Tires and Disneyland

On Friday the 23rd we left at 6:30 A.M and traveled to Salt Lake.  We stopped by to see Geralyn and Wayne and she had a water plant for Curt for his birthday.  We then went to Lee and Denise's house and delivered a Parowan  Rock Church that they had ordered.  We then went up to Huntsman for Curt's appointment.  They drew labs first and told us to come back at 1:30 P.M. to see the Doctor.  We had time to go to Capital Ceramics and pick up a few supplies.

We saw the Dr. at 2:00 P.M. He said that the tumor markers were going down, which is what we wanted to know. Dr Zangari is starting Curt on the 35 day series of chemo treatments again.  This time it will be 4 weeks on and 1 off.   He will see Dr Te in Cedar at the beginning of each series. This  will be three series and it should take us to the first week in August when we will go back up to Huntsman to see Dr. Zangari.   We were hoping that it would be in remission but not yet.
It rained all the way to Salt Lake but it was clear on the way home.

Before we left (Thursday night ) I told Curt that my right rear tire was getting bad.  We had no problems going to SLC.  On Saturday I let Tishanna take my car to St George to get a window for her car.  She had no problems then either.  On Sunday I took my car to church and drove it to work on Monday.   Aftr work Tishanna needed to go to Cedar so she borrowed my car again.  She was still in Parowan when the back left tire went flat.  She called and was upset saying that everything she touched broke.  Curt and I went to fix the flat and I told her that she had been 'watched over and protected'.  It could have blown out any of the times we had it,  on the freeway, to St. George, Salt Lake. But it went flat very closwe to home so we could help her fix it. We have to acknowledge these tender mercies that we are blessed with.

On Tuesday April 27th we got a call from Daniel.  He and his family went to California to go to Disneyland.  They stayed with Barbara and Larry on Sunday and monday. He called to tell us that as they were leaving Tony Roma's a man grabbed his arm...  The man that grabbed Daniel's arm was Clint.  He and his family had just flown into California and were going to Disneyland the same two days.  No coincidence I'm sure.  Some things are just meant to be.  Matt and his family met up with the other Paulson's, had dinner together and went on some rides.  Its the first time all the brothers, wives and cousins have been together.  What a neat thing.  It's now Friday night and I am very thankful for my family and that its Saturday tomorrow.
