Steve has been coming home this week and his ankles are swollen. Not good. It is good that he will be starting dialysis next week. He has been working some long hours trying to get crops out and Mike Archer came up last night and took over for him and he came home. Thanks Mike it was very much appreciated. He has been coming home eating and pretty much going to bed. He has been in bed at least by 9pm every night and a couple of nights it was 8:30.

Blair is still playing softball in KC on the weekends but we haven't been able to go to any of her games. Steve is too tired and I hate to go and leave him home. We have some great friends that she rides with and we can't thank them enough.

The dialysis nurse told us for the training, week after next to be there at 9:00a.m. Training will probably be 5 hours per day the first week. She said she is flexible with the hours. When I told Steve this he said we will go Monday at 9:00 and see if she won't change it to 6:00a.m. the rest of the week. We will see how that goes over.

Thanks to those of you who have offered to drive him to his appointments and to dialysis. We may have to take you up on them. Also all who has offered any kind of services, it is much appreciated. Until next week, keep praying.
