September 12

We received a letter from OHSU yesterday with all of Curt's appointments. They forgot to tell us he was supposed to have a Pre-Admission appointmnet last Friday (7th) afternoon. Curt called and they said he do that next Monday on the 17th. That will be a long day with Dr. Gross at 10:30, then a speech therapist, the PET scan at 12:30 (he can't eat for 6 hours before that and needs to limit his carbohydrates for 2 days before that), and now the Pre-Admission appointment. His left eye is bothering him a little (watering) and he is starting to talk out of the side of his mouth. However, he continues to be active (tennis this morning, a graduate student's thesis defense this afternoon, and supervising the youth at church tonight).
We are happy Beth will be able to come the day before his surgery (Sunday, the 23rd) and stay until the following Friday. She has become friends with the mother of one of Aaron's friends. This friend works for United Airlines and has offered Beth one of her "buddy passes". It will only cost $88 (I think), and she can choose ahead which flights she would like (if they are available).
Thank you again for all your prayers and support.
Joan
