But wait, there's more!

Amy & Phil think the swelling in Amy's neck is getting bigger instead of smaller even though she's on an antibiotic. And last night she e-mailed to tell me she has unexplained bruises on her legs. Hmmm. Momma instincts kicked in and today I made Dr appointments for Friday. She'll see the surgeon first and then we'll head over to primary care afterward. The good news is Phil & Amy won't have to make a special trip. They'd already planned to come down along with Mitch, Mike, and Justin to spend a couple of nights. The college kids know a good thing when they see it...clean sheets, food, and laundry facilities. And the boys have really taken a liking to my parents and are looking forward to playing ping-pong with my Dad. So both houses will play host this weekend, I think.
Despite everything, Amy is still smiling and pressing on. We're hoping for answers...something with a name instead of a bunch of symptoms...so we know what we're dealing with. But even the unknowns are part of the Master's plan, so we're trusting and taking things one day at a time.
