The Ride is Scary

Well I am plummeting down on my roller coaster ride. I was in to see the neropathic nutrition specialist, which is just some kind of doctor that talks about supplements and such. She had my blood work in front of her and so I asked her what my CA125 was. It has jumped from a 105 twenty days ago to 205, the highest it has ever been. That brought tears to my eyes immediately. I will see the doctor again tomorrow and then I will find out the plan of action. Pray for a Dr. Williams to make the right choices. I don't know if I will be able to be treated in Wichita Falls with chemo until I will be able to undergo surgery or not. I once again just need the will of the Lord in my life. He knows what is best and He knows the best path for me to take. I need Him to direct my path.

On a lighter side, we did get to go to the top of the Sears Tower yesterday. We saw the outside art gallery in downtown Chicago that is close to the water. At the top of the tower there is nothing but buildings as far as you could see. It is amazing. We saw the L Train but we didn't get out to ride it. To me it wasn't on my "must do" list while here. Joseph might disagree. It was pretty rusty and old looking.

After seeing the Doctor we should know our plans for Friday. As of today we will be heading home on Saturday.
