Kim is back from her first "octreotide" scan. She is still loaded with the radioactive isotope of said name and I am keeping my laptop and my cell phone and my self at a safe distance. [Just teasin']
Today was an easier day in the sense that it was not hurry, hurry, hurry to the next procedure, ...AND Kim got to eat anything she wanted [uh...though no bananas, berries, pineapple, plums, avocadoes, eggplant, tomatoes and nuts]. This latter prohibited list was part of another 24-hour procedure that I will not elaborate on. Just trust me.
As to CCC-ers from days gone by: I had a fun cellphone visit today with Kacey Stubblefield Boagni, who lives here with her husband Rob and a pair of daughters I am pretty-sure we won't recognize. We have been in regular contact with Kacey's sister-in-law, Monique Boagni Nilsson [Rob Boagni's sister], who works at MDA. Monique is another former CCC collegiate married to another former CCC collegiate, Chris Nilsson. We love these extra necks to hug and are so indescribably grateful for all the love that gets poured our way.
We are in search of things to eat that are legal for Kim and--on a simpler dieting front--for me. I suspect neither of us are long for the conscious world tonight. Thank you for logging on and reading and caring. We are overwhelmed with your love and ongoing affirmation. If you are not comfortable with the public aspect of blogging, just email me at jrlove@gmail.com and I'll find it.
If you are of the praying sort, we'd love to have you pray for us to be cancer-free, cancer-nuke-able, or that all this testing will give us definitive information for a clear, obvious next step.
That's where we are. We have another octreotide scan in the morning at 11:00 [it is a little scary that I can type that word without looking at a piece of paper somewhere]...this is what cancer "does" for you. So many who are reading this blog are far-too-familiar with the drill. Thank you for enduring your hard journey on this front and coming along with us on ours.
We are grateful for LIFE today and for friends to enjoy it with. Thank you,
Dicky

Ummm...maybe I read too many comic books growing up...but is Kim going to get any super powers from all this?
Just checking.
Anyway, sounds like Filet Mignon, Fried Catfish, and chocolate for Kim!

We Southern Girls love to GLOW, but Kim seems to have taken that to a far greater level. Thanks for giving us specifics to pray for!
Just writing again to remind you we are praying at the Bennett house for the Love family! God IS in control. He knows, already, what your day will be like tomorrow! (Pretty cool, huh?)We pray it is filled with God's Comfort and God's Answers. Hope you have/had a great night's rest.

Surely, He is watching over and caring for you both right now! Praying for you both, the doctors and all those working with Kim. Sleep well. God's Peace and Blessings!

We love you,
Estevan & Zelda
Glad the schedule was better. Even glad-er that you have kindred spirits there to give physical support while we lift up prayers for your healing and encouragement. We will miss you in the morning.
More love and prayers from all of us to all of you.

Hello my friends, the insomnia is in high gear at 1am in Ruston. It is thundering outside. I am praying for you. I love you dearly, tami
Dear Love Family,
Whatever report you receive today, may it be WELL with your soul because you have received Christ Work on the cross and His resurrection, your sins are pardoned and your death is defeated. May it be WELL with your soul because you have received the Energy of His Spirit, Empowered by the Holy Spirit, You can do all things through Christ who gives you strength. May it be WELL with your soul because you have received His Lordship. You belong to Him and nothing comes to you that has not passed through Him. May it be WELL with your soul because you have received His Love. Nothing can separate you from the Love of Christ. Amen (from Come Thirsty) May The Presence, Peace and Power of the Spirit of Christ be poured out upon you today.
Dicky and Kim:
The Elder team are getting together in a few minutes and both of you will get "top shelf" priority as we pray. Glad to know that what we asked for on Sunday PM is already being answered (people in strategic places that you did not expect).
Blessings,
John Ward
Dear Dicky & Kim,
We are praying for you all, especially for healing, guidance, and the peace of mind that passes all understanding. We love you.

John 14:27
Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you. I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid.
