Becca is doing well this morning. They got her pain under control and she is getting a little better every day. She has more movement in her legs and feet and this morning she knows if her foot is up or down now.

I’m going to be honest with you all, I have a VERY difficult decision to make now. We need to figure out if we are going to move her. I have been struggling with this the past few days. I have been praying and reading the scriptures on this one. Our options are continue with the doctors here, or move her to Salt Lake to the Huntsman Cancer facility. The biggest thing we have learned is support is king and that’s what it will take to beat this. All of our family is in Utah and we would have a tremendous support system there. I also know that we have a HUGE support system here. The Huntsman center has also successfully treated this type of cancer where they have never seen this here. The hardest part is if we go, it will be for several months. We won’t move there, just live with family for a while. I suppose many that go through cancer treatment don’t have family close to a center and I feel lucky in that aspect. I know we at Southwest Airlines do a LOT with the Ronald McDonald house which helps family’s during treatments. We wouldn’t need that. But I’m gaining insight into how hard some of the decisions families need to make under such pressure. I need to get Ricky into school there, not to mention how do you pack for 3-4 months?

Bottom line, I know the Lord will protect us and is guiding us. We have had some things just laid out before us, like connections with Angel Flight (she has to fly in a private plane to Utah) and how this awesome organization helps families in need. Also the contacts with the Huntsman center and their willingness to help. I haven’t finalized this yet, but I wanted so share some of my thoughts as I go through one of the most difficult decisions to date.

Please keep praying for us, I know we will be guided by the Spirit and we will make the right decision for Becca and our family.
