Just a quick update to let you know Bill is really having a good week, in moderation.
I dropped him off at work on Tuesday, for what was suppose to be one hour, and he wanted to stay 2 hours. The visit was wonderful for his well being. And he really enjoyed seeing his work friends.
Visitors came by on Wednesday. Church friends, as well as Sponge Bob, witches and goblins.
Tonight Kari, Jeff, and baby Andrew arrive, and Friday we go back to the Cancer Clinic for chemo injection into his spinal fluid.
This weekend is Kari's 30th birthday. (Our "baby" is 30!!) Been a long time since I have baked a birthday cake, but I am up to the challenge. No store baked cake here!
Jeff has offered to help with some of the fall cleanup jobs around the yard. I am going to take him up on that offer. Hope he brings a warm coat, the weather has turned cold.
Thank you again for your interest in Bill's illness and his well being. We are all players in the fight for his life.

Nancy and Bill,
Family is a wonderful thing!!! Have a great weekend celebrating with Kari and Jeff and little Andrew! Good luck with Friday; once again, I hope everything goes smoothly.
You're always in our thoughts,
Janet and John
Hi Bill and Nance,
So glad to hear that Bill is having a good week. We just can't keep these Type A men away from the office! Enjoy your visit with Kari, Jeff and baby Andrew. Hey Bill, Pete and I got to spend some time yesterday with L.C. Greenwood. His company does some work for HLC. What a nice man. Good luck on Friday. We think of you always. Much love, Jeannie
Status quo is always good - and going into the office is probably the best medicine for my dear brother. I am sure that baby
Andrew will just love his Grandpap. And watch out Jeff - I am sure the "honey do" list will keep you busy - like you aren't already.
I am sure that that 30th birthday cake will be one for the record books - it is nice to know that our kids get older, but we stay the same - in our minds, anyway!
Keep in touch - love the updates,
Love, prayers, and good health,
Gail, Marty and Mom
Yea, Bill. Back to work. That is great. You guys will have a wonderful weekend with the newest arrival at your home. Give him a hug for me. Good luck Friday.
Love you guys,
Becky
Dad - glad you're having a good week. I hope there was some leftover candy for your newly acquired sweet tooth!
And I don't know how Kari can be 30, since I'm still 29. :P
Love, Janine
Glad to hear Uncle Bill is having a good week. When the patient has a good day, the care taker has one too. Enjoy the weekend. Baby Andrew is adorable. I can't believe how much a baby can look like its father!! Tell Kari Happy Birthday!! Enjoy!!
Lots of Love and Prayers,
E.B.
Sorry I amso late tonight. Jim's mom celebrated her 90th birthday tonight witha family dinner.
Glad to hear Bill had a good week. Knowing my brother I'm sure he enjoyed his visit to work. It always helps to get out of the house.
Kari -30. It doesn't seem possible.
Good luck with Friday. I'll keep you in thought and prayer. Kiss the baby for me.
Love,
Paula and Jim
It is always good to hear that things are going well. Keep hanging in there and this will soon be over. I know you will enjoy your weekend with Kari and her family. What cuties Maggie and Andrew are! Lynn and Lake
So glad to hear everything is going good. I love the pictures of the Andrew and Maggie. Kaylee was our little Steeler's cheerleader thanks to Aunt Lissa. Happy Birthday Kari..the big 30! WOW it sneaks up fast, I know I will be the big 30 next week also.
Take care our thoughts are with you,
Wendy
Uncle Bill,
Glad to hear all is well this week. And I hope all is well today.
Sorry I missed the chat room the other night. I forgot you all were an hour behind.
Have fun with your grandson this weekend! Kari, contrary to popular opinion...30 IS NOT OLD! You are just getting started.
Much Love and continued prayer!
Melissa
Sounds like you have had a good week...and the arrival of your kids and that sweet baby boy will really boost yur spirits. Love too all of you. Have a great weekend!
Ann and Jim Reego
Bill & Nancy,
Glad you had a good week. I am at Carla's watching the girls while she and John are in San Jose Cabo, Mexico for a business trip with John's company. I can definitely tell I'm getting older every time I try to keep up with the Cain girls. Don't tell me Kari is 30? She was only 12 when I first met her. Hannah is 12 now. Time flies!! Bill, hope you keep up the good work and tell Jeff to stop by and he can rake a few leaves for me. Enjoy Andrew!
Happy Birthday Kari!
Love to all,
Mary Jo
