Fire Trucks and Frustration

On Saturday, we were on our way to our beloved warehouse store (Costco), when we spotted a few fire trucks parked at the beach.  They were not obviously involved in any kind of emergency mission, so we pulled over and took Nicholas for his first up-close visit.  A friendly fireman even let him drive his hook 'n ladder!
oh?  bah!  (Nicholas' phone dialogue)



Call me Capn. Curly Head!
I just came home from the doctor, who reported (not surprisingly) that the biopsy results from Friday were pretty inconclusive.  They did see some inflammation, but they can't confirm that they got a good sample of the nodes to totally rule out Hodgkins.  Oh well, it was worth a try.  As far as next steps go.... Dr. A is communicating with a pulmonary surgeon about the possibility of performing a more precise biopsy (more of a surgical procedure) or possibly removing the nodes themselves.  Will provide updates as they develop!
