Alan’s Army

My most sincere apologies to everyone.

Once Alan’s daily treatment regimen finished everything else in my life came crashing in and I’ve been busy beyond belief with cool stuff like 2009 IT budgets (I really mean cool, there’s nothing like a good spreadsheet.)  The trip to the shore was nice, but I saw the ocean for about 10 minutes and spent most of my time on the laptop.

This will be a short note too, sorry.

Alan is doing fine.  We are in Philly at the oncologist setting up his next round of chemo which will be the week of Sept. 22nd.

Tomorrow we go to Newark to see the eye surgeon and the low-vision doctor.

The mobility specialist from the NJ Commission for the Blind is in theory showing up at the house on Friday, but since it’s been three months since first contacting the commission, I’m not holding my breath.  The occupational therapist has been to the house twice now, so I’m not sure why the disparity in responsiveness.

We just found out that we need to come back to Philly early Friday morning for Alan’s MRI because they messed up the appointment for today.

Sigh

Hopefully I can give you all a thorough update on things like the hot-shot oncologist visit and the fundraiser in Maine next week while on an 8 hour flight to Germany for business.

Anyway, I hope everyone is well, thanks for your continued prayers and God bless.

Andrew
