Hi all!

It has been a while since I posted here.  My bf peter has been thru chemo and radiation, and now goes for the srgery tomorrow.  Needless to say we are both nervous.

The chemo and radiation were tough, and because of mis management of j tube issues...we fired johns. 

In any case, we ended up, via ambulance, at Georgetown. Thankfully, They were wlling to put in a picc line and tpn, so peter is MUCH better!

Thru this ordeal, we met a surgeon and his partner, who do MIE using robotics.  The 'davinchi' equipment is at GW hospital, but we feel confident we are now in the right place.  Our prayer now is that they will be able to procede with minimally invasive, as he is on the outside of the window regarding radiation and scarring.  But at least at GW it is an option!

Please do send prayers.  I will try to keep people posted.  The chemo/rad and hospital stays kept me busy crocheting...and for tomorrow I have a new knitting project!  I may have to find something else tho...as I am SO tense...my stitches are as well!! lol
