For whatever reason, Kevin and I seem to be in synch with our sleeping.  In other words, we BOTH didn't get much sleep for whatever reason.  I stayed up late finishing a book, then couldn't fall asleep.  Kev just couldn't get comfortable and his

This evening, me and my Popeye's chicken were enjoying some quiet time in the waiting room.  I saw the surgeon that's been working with Kevin and waved hello when a lady next to me asked if I was a med student.  I told her no and

Did you know that just last week this blog made 1300 hits in just 1 day?  That doesn't count people who check it more than once-that's different hits!  I just think it's awesome that God is helping us tell our story to so many

Today has been quite the day of poking and prodding for Kevin.  He had his esophogoscomy (yes, that is the correct word) bag changed, and re-figured with the oscomy nurse.  We've shaved his beard CLEAN off, he's had his dressing changes on EVERYTHING, and it hasn&
