After 6.5 hours in the car with my two boy's we arrived in Seattle. I have to say I am truly amazed at the progress my dad has made. He walked from the hotel to the cancer center and back. This is the first time since I was here last and then he went into the hospital. He is eating and drinking more than he has in a long time. His blood counts are looking great. An interesting side effect of the chemo drugs is he has no taste. This is probably why he does not want to eat. The side effect can disappear at any point. Overall he is good, but very weak. We are hoping he will be released to leave Seattle this weekend and stay on Bainbridge. It also looks like they may be able to return to Bend in early July. Things are going good. Thank you for all of your support. Cheers.
