New Normal

At our last appointment, Layne asked again about anything else he could be doing. He's grateful for the results. He's also a logical, scientific mind, meet a goal kind of a guy. He's wanting a definite time frame for being back to working full time, not feeling exhausted, running again, and getting back to what he's been used to doing. He feels like he just got settled with things at work and then cancer happened. We both laughed when he compared having cancer with working on a doctorate degree. Life seems to drag on with no light at the end of the tunnel.

  1. Did the doctor not give him any kind of time frame or goals he could set? I totally get that he wants to be working towards a goal! How has he felt working a few hours a week? We just keep praying for you and him. xo

    1. The time frame is unknown. The doctor has no idea how long the clear scans will last. Layne is working on attempting a few hours of work a week and the possibility of running again. Those are things he can work on...actually getting rid of the cancer completely is not on the list. Being able to keep the growth at bay is the best that can be done at this point. We're grateful for the prayers.

  2. Funny that scientists do seem to think alike. We do feel blessed that things have slowed down a bit. Thanks for the prayers.
