Dad/Grandpa went in for his biopsy this past week. Just a couple of days ago he got a call from the hospital to let him know there was no sign of cancer. This is such a relief. The doctor finally told us that only 20% of those he biopsied ended up having cancer. He hadn't told us that before and we were under the impression that when the count is high it's pretty certain it's cancer. So all these weeks we've been worried and checking options and reading up on how best to treat prostate cancer. There really weren't any good options. Whew! I think Dad feels like he has a new lease on life.
Darrin and Alicen didn't mention this, but as we let you know Alicen's grandfather (her step-dad Doug's father) passed away recently. He was only seventy-five. I'd post the obituary about him but I don't know how to do that. He had ten children, 40 grandchildren, and 13 great grandchildren and it sounds like he was a really great guy. The funeral was held in Provo and we understand it was a beautiful meeting. Malia participated and sang with her cousins.
I'm trying to think of other news: On my side, Annette and Lowell's Hannah was baptized this past week and we understand that Toni's son who just got back from his mission will be getting married this fall or winter. (His girlfriend waited) I imagine Cami and Mark will probably be letting you know about Alder's big day.
