more time

Dave had a chest x-ray this week, which showed improvement in his lungs. We're going to continue the antibiotic for a week, and then start the prednisone. He is still very active, very happy and very much Dave. They want to see him back at Penn in two weeks for another x-ray, and as long as he's still doing well, we'll bring him in. And, from what they're telling us as far as future visits, meds, etc., it sounds like he'll be okay for the next few weeks. Will we? Who knows? But the day-to-day has gotten easier. We get sad when we look at him playing, or jumping up and streching on us, among many other things, but most of the time it stays in the back of our minds.
