The Beat Goes On...

I've been getting some emails and facebook messages asking, "What is going on? How is Denny doing?"  In answer to that, Denny is doing fine.  I think of the line in the song, "The beat goes on."  He started his 5th round of chemo on October 14th.  He will have one more round after this.  He is tolerating the treatment well and feels pretty good.  After the 6th round completes, he will probably have another scan.  Treatment plans after that are undetermined at this time.

He is retiring after 35+ years from the Army Corps of Engineers on November 1st.  There is going to be a luncheon in his honor.  Dana is coming home from school so our family will be together for him on his special day.  He already has his next few weeks planned after that!

We are thankful for every day and this celebration to look forward to.  Thanks to all of our family and friends for keeping hope alive.  He appreciates the cards, emails and phone calls from you.  We could not be as strong as we are without you!
