Good Evening Everyone! It has been slightly less than a week since my last post, and we have covered quite a bit of ground. Cindy had 2 PT sessions last week, and had another scheduled for last Thursday, but she did not feel up to the task. Cindy's mom, Grace stayed with us most of last week (for which we are truly grateful). Cindy got the results of her mammogram and ultrasound last week, which were inconclusive. We drove up to Raleigh on Thursday, and then on to Charlotte on Friday for a visit with the doctor, and a breast biopsy. The doctor was unable to complete the procedure in his office, so we had to go down to the breast cancer radiology unit at Carolinas Medical Center where we were able to finish things up with the additional equipment. We are anticipating receiving the results on Tuesday or Wednesday this week. We have already scheduled an appointment with the medical oncologist for Friday to get the results from the biopsy, and to plan Cindy's treatment going forward, which will likely include some systemic chemotherapy. Cindy's sister, Anne came and stayed with her today taking Cindy to her PT appt. as well as a brief shopping trip in her wheel chair. Beth, Amanda, and Jane, three of the Walking Ladies of Fox Lake came by and took Luci for a walk this weekend (Beth came by twice). Ann S. and Betty Jo F., two of the other Walking Ladies came by today to share some walking time with Luci. Needless to say, she has been a happy puppy. Our friend, Ulla is planning to stay with Cindy tomorrow, which hopefully is going to be something of a rest/Bible study day. Cindy is still moving rather slowly with her walker as she continues to have some balance issues, and is not steady on her feet. I do believe the PT has been helpful, but the progress has been slow.
I had to report as a potential juror today. I knew that we were going to have to go back to Charlotte this week for further planning/treatment this week, and fortunately the judge excused me from serving this time.
We continue to be the beneficiaries of your thoughts and prayers, and are continuing to take things one day at the time. As I read some time back, we are all responsible for the footwork in our lives, and God is responsible for the results. I, for one, am very grateful for that. I hope each of you has a great day and a great week.

Hey there! We are continuing to pray for you both each day! We got to see our baby on the u/s yesterday...all looks well. I'll call you over the weekend since we are planning to be in Sampson Co. My dad is speaking at Beulah UMC Sunday for their homecoming and that evening is the Faircloth family reunion at my grandmother's building. Hope today is a good day! Love you!
