Sorry all that I have not been keeping this up to date but I am still around!! I got good news finally that my cancer count was down so that is good as long as it stays that way!! We had a great time at Spring Break in Fla. It was a good release for the whole family!! We needed it!! Attached is a website to sponser a friend here at work on the Susan B. Komen walk run. His wife passed from cancer so he and his daughter are doing this! If you happen to have a couple extra dollars please help her reach her goal. Thanks again for all you support and prayers!!!

Well I haven't been back in a while so I figured I'd add something today!! All is about the same my Chemo is going good but the hernia took over for it and has my stomach in knots!! Litterally!! We are looking forward to Spring Break in Florida as long as all is well with my numbers.. Thanks again to all of you fopr the support!! Three more months I will have this shit kicked and we will have a huge party for all of you who went through this with me!! I appreciate every one of you!! Thanks Dean!!

Well back again for another week of fun in the sun!! I had been feeling so good the last week and a half and thirty minutes into my session yesterday I started feeling like shit!! Well I guess that is how it will go, but at least this makes my halfway point.

I did find out yesterday that the hernia I developed along the stitches will need to be operated on as soon as it can. That means I have to get the stone and the hernia removed when this is done.. I'm pretty sure when all this shit is over I should be in line to win the lottery!!

Well you all take take and talk to ya soon!!

Oh and by the way Brett Meyer was scared you would all think it was him posting these since I use his name all the time but it is just me and trying to show Brett all the appreciation he deserves!!!

Oh and not to raise the bar to high Devin said the the Edwards are the best cooks so far!!! Sorry to everyone else everything has been great with me!!

Ok now I am getting to this twice in one week.. I had my cancer Dr. tell me that if they need to do surgery to remove the stones it was ok so I have to go back tomorrow morning and if my white count is up they may take these mean little thing out this Thursday or Friday or early next week..

Oh and on another note Pam is trying to kill me!!! She came in last night and said that I had it TOO HOT (70*) in the house so instead of turning it down she turned it off!! So this morning I woke up freezing to a 50*house!! My whole body felt like it had needles sticking in it!!

At least she did go turn it back on while I stood in a hot shower... So maybe she is just trying to wake me up!!

Talk to you all later!!

Well back again with week 5 of this fun in the sun!! The Kidney Stones have really ruining my good time!! I think I finally passed one of the three this weekend!! Now let's hope the other two are a little less vigilant than the first one!! Hopefully the little bastards will just follow NEMO to the light!!! It has been a long week with the STONES!! Hope everyone out there is good!! Or just better than me!! Take care and thanks to all again!!

P.S. If Brett had been coaching last night the Cardinals would have won the Superbowl for the Cardinals.....

Well I had a great weekend, I spent my Saturday in the emergency room.
I guess now I have Kidney Stones too so when it rains it pours!! The stones are probably more painful than anything so far so if this is it I guess I can handle it, these pains just come and go but when it hits it really hurts. I have a appointment with a Dr. tomorrow to see what we can do so I don't have to go through this too.. So I will let you all know how it turns out!!

Thanks again and love ya all!!!

well i am all hooked up for number (4) I really hope it goes better than number three did.. I pretty much was sick from two weeks ago when it stopped until just yesterday, but I guess that happens!!

Oh and the new drug that I fought for and got and started last treatment makes your face break out really bad with an acne looking thing so I look like the elephant man!! I swear if it doesn't make you shit, feel crappie or make you appearance terrible they don't give it to you!! I have yet for someone to tell me the side effects were mild and flowers may grow in your garden!! I will not be surprised by the time I am done if I don't have an arm growing out of my butt!!

Other than that all is well this will make it 33% done!! So hopefully in four and a half month I will be back to my normal 6'2" fine chizzled body, like before!!

Thank you all again for all the love and support!!

OH AND BY THE WAY IF YOU WATCH THE CARDINALS PLAY IT IS JUST LIKE WATCHING THE JUNIOURS DOMINATE THE FIELD WITH BRETT MYERS GOING FOR IT ALL!!
