Journal entry by Ruth Allender

Hello to all.

We have settled into Dallas UTSW Hospitals. & our new home  

it has been 4 years Pat has has endured his treatments for Metastatic Prostate Cancer.  His medication injections had a span of 2 years for benefits and it lasted 4 years. Unfortunately it it is not benefiting him any more. After new PET scans & blood work it revealed the cancer is active again & has spread to other soft tissues & bones. 
He will begin Chemotherapy April 20th for several weeks and then retested. At that time’ depending on the results another plan will be put into place. 
Please keep us all in your prayers and if you have a chance give him a call. We have each other our children & grandboys for support.  We often think of y’all back in Iowa. Miss everyone & hugs to all
God Bless
Ruth
