It was nice having my whole family here today (Terry, Sam, Sierra, Nevada, and myself). While Pop finished up his 11th radiation treatment we all went and found the gift store, cafeteria, etc. and just showed them around. Sierra and I later checked out some interesting artwork and their narrations. The artwork was done by cancer patients and caregivers. Very interesting. I will post some pictures of these when I am back home. Sierra and I also noticed a neat saying in the waiting room.

After Pop's treatment was done we were able to attend the Tuesday night pot luck supper. Everybody brings something! I bet you can guess what we brought? BBQ ribs from the Truck Stop! Everyone seemed to enjoy them! We also had chicken 'n dumplings, salad, and some other things. Pop seemed to eat pretty good! The kids and Terry also stayed to eat. Nevada drank some of Pop's boost since he doesn't really care for them.
Well, the rest of the family left after dinner and so Pop went back up to rest and I played bingo (no prizes tonight so not many people stayed). Pop later came down and ate an orange and listened to the youth group that was visiting and singing songs. They sang "Trading My Sorrows" and "Heart of Worship". They even brought a guitar! I think he enjoyed it! Later on the guy from the Cayman Islands told me about his cancer and also about some of the other people here. It seems like the people here are truly a support system for each other. They care so much about each other. In fact, the Cayman Island guy said he thinks Pop is a very nice man. I told him that we already knew that!
Signing off for now = ] Thanks to all of you for the support you have been giving to all of us!
