 4/22/2005  Hi Dan & Deb: Sounds like things are going as well as can be expected. Excited that you have a donor and your next step to healing will be soon. We have been praying for you both. John really misses you Dan and your gift to make him laugh. It seems you have kept up the gift of laughter and maybe it is a family trait that Molly shares. We are checking your website daily for updates. Just know that we are thinking of you and praying for a quick healing and recovery. Love John and Patti Prichard
 12/26/2004  Hi Dan (Frank Furter) I heard today that you were ill. These life altering illnesses really help us prioritize our life. I had excellent care for cancer recently at the Mayo Clinic. The drive does get monotonous but I always felt I was getting he best care available. I will keep you in my prayers. Ann Donnelly Compton
 1/4/2005  Hi Dan - My sister Patti told me what has been going on. Wanted to let you know I did private duty and home care for years as a nurse and have worked at both the Mayo and the UofM .They are both wonderful places and you would be in great hands in either one. I really couldn't recommend one over the other. I have done home care and private duty for a child who was a stem cell donor to his brother at the UofM it was a very moving experience and all went well . I was very impressed with the hospital and staff ( and also the Ronald McDonald House ). The hospital did a wonderful job with the care of both brothers and was very supportive of the family. I'm sorry to hear of the situation for and you and your family but wanted to share with you what I know - in case it would be of any help. I've been on the list to be a stem cell donor for years too. Hope this helps a little - your in our prayers. Let me know if I can be of any help. Trudy Namur (Pat Huston's sister )

 2/24/2005  Hi Dan and Deb I know drugs are effective but I saw this on the mayo.com's nutrition site and thought of you. -------------------- It depends on how much and what type of fiber you consume. But high levels of fiber may adversely affect mineral absorption. In general the insoluble fiber found in whole wheat is more likely to interfere with mineral absorption than soluble fiber found in oats dried beans and fruit. Also two substances called phytate and oxalate found in the husks of grains seeds dried beans and some vegetables may inhibit absorption of iron calcium and zinc. ------------------- Great Harvest Bread has some really tasty 100% whole wheat breads. I thought maybe every little bit would help. Thinking of you Lauren Brown
