Merrill and Iris. Some trees grow together for many years and learn to stand tall when the winds and the snows come. Sometimes there is sunshine, sometimes clouds. Sometimes they provide cover for others who pass their way. Through it all they grow together in love in the soil of this earth and throughout all eternity.

Merrill's visit to cancer center

Hi everyone,
Merrill had to go to the cancer center and had blood drawn today and had another IV fluids given to him. Next week he will have another CT done then have chemo on Thursday. The doctor will tell us then how many treatments he needs and how the cancer tumors are doing. We went with Neil the other day and watched Jack play soccer. It was fun. Well I will go for now and tell you more next Thursday about how things are doing.
