Friday

I have no energy because I am exhausted tonight. Today was a bit draining emotionally for me. Gary held up pretty well with the exception of some serious pain that he had to deal with. When we got home he had to crawl up the stairs.

The biopsy went as expected. He was in a lot longer than they thought but he ended up falling asleep before they wheeled him into the OR and he slept for and hour and a half afterwards.

He has been in bed since we got home at 2 PM. He had an In&Out burger for lunch and we had pizza for dinner.
Matt and Jen had the kids for the vast majority of the day. They need a break from us! I am sure we are totally irritating!
So, Dr. Mazi is checking on Gary's blood work and will most likely have results tomorrow.
The biopsy rtesults should be back by Thursday.
The PET scan is Tuesday at 1:15 PM at UCI.

We got word late this evening that Gary got in to see Dr. Bart! This is HUGE!!! He is not taking new patients and he refers everyone to his colleague Dr. Carrol. We received at least 20 referals to go to Dr. Barth and we thought there was no hope of getting in to see him. He is Chief of Satff at Hoag as well as 1 of America's Best Doctors!

I need to go finish my movie.
Good Night and I will give you more infomation tomorrow.
