No further developments today.

Gilly enjoys phone calls, and chatting with friends and family. His spirits remain high and he has a positive attitude altogether. He's determined to get back to work as soon as possible. He's an amazing force, my Gilly!

The biopsy is scheduled for 7:30 a.m. Monday. The results should be available anytime from 24hours later and onwards. The analysis may take some time, depending on how many consultations need to be made in the process. It's hard to get into the tumour since it's so deep, so they will not necessarily gather enough to analyse as well as they'd like. We were told that they may not be able to identify the type of tumour in the end (for this reason), but are hoping they can.

He will need a few days to recuperate from the biopsy, and they will need to watch carefully for complications. I will let you readers know after the biopsy is done when he can have visitors.

I will teach this week starting Tuesday if all goes well, but we have Gilly covered.

So many have offered help and best wishes. All are warmly received (appreciated) by the whole clan. We know we can count on all of you to be there as needed. It's hard to know what we need right now, except good news. We'll surely ask when we know. Gilly needs distraction, unquestionably, I need sleep, the kids need to be given a meal here or there and lifts now and again to and from the hospital. That way they can remain healthy, strong and available to see their dad as much as possible.

I believe that Gilly's sunny attitude will get us through this ordeal.

More news only after the biopsy,
