I've almost reached the end of my first package of origami paper, and I still have a long way to go. I've been asked multiple times what kind of paper I'm using. It is a basic 6"x6" white folding paper. I purchased it on Amazon: http://www.amazon.com/Japanese-Origami-Folding-Paper-White/dp/B0034JIOMK/ref=wl_it_dp_o?ie=UTF8&coliid=I32Y4EFGZ13065&colid=4LG0T72AWV2B Unfortunately, they are currently sold out of it, so I'll be looking into other papers. Any suggestions on local Austin stores or good online stores are welcome.
Also, I thought I would give you an update on my dad since this whole project is based on him. Back in the fall (2009), he had a stint put in his liver to help it drain since he was getting jaundice. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jaundice About a month ago (March 2010) he was put in the hospital multiple times because of an infection that had formed in his liver because of the stint. Getting an infection in the liver is a possible side effect of having a stint put in. He had the stint replaced last week because the tumors in his liver had blocked the stint from draining properly. However, he is getting fever again, so he is going back to the hospital today so the doctors can check the current stint and make sure it is draining like it should. Unfortunately, he has been out of chemotherapy since February because of the infection and currently not get back onto a study until his bilirubin counts get back into a normal range. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bilirubin As soon as I get more information on his condition, I will let y'all know.
