September 5











We enjoyed the past few days with family. Angie's family came last Thursday for the first OSU football game (we won!). The next day we went to the coast. Angie and the girls then stayed until Saturday. Sunday we picked up my cousin and his wife from Phoenix (Terry and Susan Rapp) in Portland. We showed them the Columbia Gorge and drove around Mt. Hood. The next day we went to the coast (and finally saw the ocean after the fog lifted). Yesterday we showed them Corvallis, stopped at Angie's, and went to the Rose Garden in Portland before taking them to the airport.
OHSU called today to say they have scheduled Curt's PET scan on the same day (Monday, September 17) that he sees Dr. Gross. He will see Dr. Gross at 10:30, a speech therapist at 11, and have the scan at 12:30. He has to limit his carbohydrates for 2 days before and can't have anything to eat after 7 AM that day. This Friday he is going to see the reconstructive surgeon, Dr. Wax. He has been feeling okay except for the pain by his ear. He is taking oxycocone and Excedrin for that and does get tired at times. I did some of the driving while showing Terry and Susan Oregon. Today he played tennis this morning and is golfing 9 holes later this afternoon.
Thank you for all your prayers and support.
Joan
