On January 27, 2011 Eric Merkley was diagnosed with osteosarcoma. An aggressive cancer that we hope and the doctors to this point seem confident that is contained to one spot on his leg. Prognosis is good. Treatments and recovery will be long and painful.

So Excited

Sometimes it feels like my whole life centers around July 22 at 1:08pm.  I can not tell you how excited I am for Eric to come home.  He has completed another round of scans, where the word must have been good, because there was no "word".  They wanted him to wait 3 hours to visit with a doctor about the results of his scans, and he told them "no way, call me if there is a problem." 
He feels great.  He looks Great.  Proof was our conversation with him on Mother's Day.


And yes they get a few precious moments to relax and enjoy life.

Life is great and the blessings of these missionaries touch, not only our family, but also families around the world because of the faith of these young men and women.
