This is my first "post" to the blog site that Carrie created. I am a bit new to it, but I am convinced that it is a great way to keep you all posted [pardon the pun] and give you a chance to give us your thoughts and prayers and such.
Here is the deal as far as we know it. We leave tomorrow morning [Tuesday, January 29] around 4:30 a.m. to get signed in to M. D. Anderson in Houston by 11:00 a.m.
Kim will be "mostly" NPO after midnight tonight for her bloodwork at 1:00 p.m. and CT scan around 4:00 p.m.
The rest we are waiting to find out about. Be assured...by this time tomorrow Dicky will have a lay of the land and we will know at least a little more about our schedule. Carrie or Abby or I will be posting updates regularly.

Thanks Carrie for making the blog a way to communicate. Kim and Dicky, our prayers continue on with the McGehee family.
We love the Loves, and will be praying continually. (Dicky, I will spam all our CCC peeps with your email and blogspot URL as soon as I get to the office.)
I love you both and am praying so much. I am going to call the monastery in KY and they will be praying as well.
wish I was there with you. Much love to you,
Gail
Kim and Dicky,

Keep your eyes on Him who gives strength to the weary.Isaiah 40.

I am going to figure this thing out.
You know we're at your beck and call. Here's my cell if you need ANYTHING: 281-799-3705
Thanks, Dicky and Carrie, for the blog site. We pray-ers like to stay informed of how you all are doing and what you are doing. Be confident God is holding you guys in HIS MIGHTY HANDS!!!!
We love you! Chris and Tracy
Hugs for you both...Love you much,

Hey Kim! Hey Dicky! Off on Kim's Big Adventure!!! We all love you guys and are so pumped that you are at MDACC!! They're the "best in the west", and we are all praying for their best efforts to help Kim!
Tattoo her MRN to her arm somewhere, 'cause that's the key to the MDACC kingdom!
If you guys are in the Mayes building, the navigational aid is in the carpet -- just follow the big blue rectangles in the carpet -- they mark out the main hallways that lead to almost all of the elevators. As the week goes on, you'll find some "shortcuts".
Also, while you're there, check out the Jesse Jones Rotary House (Marriott hotel) that's in the medical complex. If Kim has to have a treatment that lasts a few days, it's will save her the time and energy of having to leave the med center to go to the hotel. It's really handy!!!!
Just know how much I love you both, and how much I'm thinking about you!!! I'll be waiting expectantly for your next blog post!
All the best!!!
Chad & Sue
praying for you and love you all.

Still praying with you guys. I'll circulate the specific things you guys are praying through whenever you post.

May the HEALER hold you All UP!
May He embrace you with His Holy and Righteous hand of protection and guidance.
May He Encourage you as you experience and endure pain and suffering.
As the Author of Life may He stretch and strengthen your faith with joy as you press on knowing that He has gone before you.

Carrie, Thanks for dragging me kicking and screaming into the blogosphere. I have posted twice before--so I thought. :( I hope this one gets through.
Dicky & Kim,
Thanks for the posts, we are very thankful for the updates. Nick & I have been praying for you. We miss you both soooo much!
All our love,
Pam Whitehead
Kim, you and Dicky have become so very important in Dave's and my lives...Christ Community Church has become our family...these things are far too
wonderful for us to comprehend. Your leadership and guidance in the ladies "Discerning the Voice of God" Bible study and what you have helped it grow to be is lifeblood and breath to this weary yet "net finished yet" soul.
Our Father has called me to pray for you for strength, for courage and for healing...along with joy and laughter to be shared with those who love you.
We look forward to becoming a more active part of the CCC family. We grow to love and care deeply for one another through the problems that life throws our way. You supported me this week past in the passing of my dad and the responsibilities of helping execute the will and a very broken family.
You and Dicky have become a very important part of Dave's and my prayer life, our church life and our worship life.
May He draw you close to Himself providing you with all that you need and all that you hope for.
