Guest guest Posted May 11, 2006 Report Share Posted May 11, 2006 Barb,This sounds like good news to me!I wish you and Ken the best of luck.We will all be waiting to hear how it goes and hoping for the best.LeeWe were shocked….Ken’s GI didn’t even tell us, but he referred Ken to Baylor for another evaluation (his 1st was in 1999). We were able to pick a date, so we decided to wait until June 12th. I get the cast off my arm on the 6th, so that will make things easier. And they told Ken to get an ERCP done before he comes and to get all his medical records together to bring with us. Thank goodness I keep up with all his paperwork, so that job is already done. Ken seems fairly happy & relaxed about it, hubby on the other hand isn’t looking forward to babysitting his 3 dogs and our 3 dogs!

Guest guest Posted May 12, 2006 Report Share Posted May 12, 2006 Barb, It always seems very strange saying " great news " for something so scary. Unfortunately, that is the way it is with this disease. I am happy for all of you that Ken will be going for evaluation and praying that it all turns out the way you hope for. I know you have been waiting a long time for this. Although it is good news, I am sure you are frightened at the same time. We are here for you, the same way you have always been there for us through the tough times. Keeping you all in my prayers. Together in the fight...Whatever it takes!!!
