We just got back from a long weekend in St. Louis. We surprised the kids with a weekend trip for Christmas. Brian and I wanted to go farther but with his treatment we thought we should keep it close and short this time. We left Friday and went to Hard Rock Cafe and celebrated Ben's Birthday (they sang to him and gave him some ice cream) then we went to a St. Louis Blues hockey game (they lost with the only score made the last 3 minutes of the game). We took the Metro from Fairview Heights into the City and it was great. I am so glad St. Louis now has a light rail system. It makes going in STL so much easier (and cheaper by the time you spend gas, parking and all the traffic troubles). On Saturday we spent the day shopping, swimming and eating! We had a great time. Here are a few photos (of the 200 I took...I can only upload 5 per post so I'll share more later).
It was nice to just get away for a few days. Alot on our minds lately....Brian had a PET scan done on Friday morning before we went cause "something" showed up on his CT scan the week before. They think it's just scar tissue but needed to make sure. We should find out results on Wednesday 1/2 when he goes for Chemo #5. Please send good thoughts and prayers Brian's way.
