An early Christmas at our house!

Christmas came a little early at our house this year~about a week early actually. Last Saturday we received a letter from Stanford (on the official letterhead no less) officially taking Nick off the transplant list. They were "...pleased to hear of him doing so well..." and found no reason to keep him on the list!! Praise God!
THEN...Dan had an appointment at Stanford on Monday/Tuesday this last week...he had a CT and PET scan to check on progress of his tumors on his liver and pancreas. Much to all of our suprise and answer to MANY prayers he recieved the news we had been waiting for...the tumors had shrunk on his liver (to very very small) and the tumor on his pancreas was so small that the doctor is not at all sure it's still a tumor!! She thinks it may just be scar tissue and/or a dying tumor!! I can't tell you how thrilled and excited and in awe I am. Everytime Dan and Ash shared with someone about this incredible news last night all I could do was grin from ear to ear, giggle and clap my hands every single time. :D How AMAZING is our God!! Thank you all for the countless prayers you have lifted up for BOTH of our young men...how did we get so blessed to have such wonderful family and friends??!!
May your Christmas be bright and your 2009 be extraordinary!! We love you!!
