We're leaving Thursday to visit  friends in Knoxville. They've been
extremely close online family for a couple years now and as of early last
week,  she has "guaranteed" health for a couple weeks or so. Hopefully
that's changed now, prayers came through and she was approved for
experiemental chemo. She's literally ran through everything available to her
and the only thing left are drugs in current testing phases. To be approved
means hours of research, phone calls, paper work and pleas.

Without Chemo, they were looking at her passing by Christmas. With it,
February. But that's saying little as she's been leaving docs hanging dry
with 2-3 month "dead" lines six months later on multiple occassions.

This is it, this is going to be our miracle drug or we're going to loose one
of the strongest women Jody and I have come to hold dear. She's in her 30s,
and they have a 13 year old son. They've been married since she was 16,
together since she was 14 or so.

At any rate, we're driving up to spend time with them. The last couple weeks
have been hard. Appreciate prayers and purrs headed their way and ours for
travel.

Happy Thanksgiving and see you in December :)
