Good Morning!!!  The Esther homecoming was  just wonderful.  Banners, balloons, flowers, frig full of food and a clean house and car was amazing.  If you know the Esther house hold this was truly  a treat and blessing.  Every card, email, phone call, dinner, flower, plant, cookie, house cleaning angel has not gone unnoticed.  Every act of kindness has been a blessing on this journey.  I believe you are all a part of Gods army of angels that are going before us to clear our path!!!
John's recovery is miraculous as many of you have witness.  We are walking 2 miles daily,  he has been floating, and out with some cowboys in a covered wagon!!  He is ready for the next hurdle in this battle.  We are heading to Barnes Tues the 29th to get our plan for chemo and radiation.  We are also heading to Duke for a visit with Dr. Friedman to get his opinion on possible clinical trails. 
We continue to ask for prayer: God would give us the perfect strategy for chemo and radiation, favor with care givers, clarity on decision making,  uncomplicated treatment that will not be interrupted,  protection over our children during this time, and  that we will continue to have the peace that surpasses all understanding.
I continue to ask God to bless everyone of you abundantly!!
John's #1 nurse.

Dr Esther,
I miss seeing your smile at each patients bedside.
I think of you often, and want you to know how much you are loved by each and every one who works in the surgery suite.
I know you are in good hands, and I wish all the best for you and your family.
Sincerely,
Lisa
