Hello Friends,

After a long of day waiting (thanks for the visits), our roller coaster got some answers.

It appears the liver spots are excess fat in the liver. We say “Praise the LORD”.

The bone scan does not appear to show cancer.

The lungs – we are still unsure. They will do a second bronchoscopy Tuesday morning. Doctor Enjetti will have a pathologist beside him during the procedure to look at the cells. This should give an immediate answer.

Regarding the blood Clots – filter in place to catch any in the legs.

Regarding the CAT scan – appears to be from the stroke with no change.

Physical therapy has been ordered to get Dad up and walking.

So we are hoping that Dad is just a big ball of fat, ha.

For some humor from Barb. I myself am becoming a big ball of fat. I have learned to take the best food from the unclaimed food trays. We have been here so long that the servers tell us to help yourself. Love and Kisses Barb

Thanks for your continued prayers we are feeling them.

The Family

Hello ole man, I would come see you but I am afraid that I would get lost or lose my keys or sumthin. I told little margie about your little problem and it effected her so that she stopped talking about her new president. She really cares for both of us. It,s just that we ain,t pubs. We are all looking forward to you getting yourself back to the Y. joe

Praise the Lord! What wonderful news. That answers my question as to what that loud roar was coming from the south early this evening; it was all the Elmores singing their praises and cheering with joy.
Oh, the sour cream pie I made for work today; not a crumb left. Boy was I surprised.
May you rest peacefully this night.
Love you and may the Lord continue to heal you; and Barbara keep your mits off those trays:))
Love you all,
Kathy

Dad; well I was restless all night sleeping little but sometimes it just works that way-God has our attention! Lots of prayers for you and I am even gonna stop by a few favorite places of mine today to say a prayer for your peace. Something I read-"God is compassionate to those who come to him, but we cannot even begin to understand his ways and thoughts".... I love u and am praying hard. b

Harry, having know you, I would expect you would have many friends and a very loving family. I just didn't realize how powerful their prayers would be! Thank the Lord.
Work hard in therapy, as I know you will. The world is a better place with you in it, so you're not going to get much rest now.
As always, only the BEST,
The Gardalens

Well Harry, when the Vols did not lose to Vandy on Saturday I knew the big man upstairs was trying to send some love and healing your way. Good news. We continue to have you in our thoughts and prayers. Scott, Leslie and the boys.

Harry glad to hear you are getting some good news for a change. You sure were sawing logs yesterday when I stopped by; we old horse's do need our rest you know. I sure enjoyed a few minutes with some of your family. You are truly blessed and are surrounded by much love. Take care and may God continue to aid your recovery. Jake
