Great news Sparky, glad everything is going in the right direction. I think the support group is also a wonderful idea, I think of this site and how much it helps, that has to do the same.

Hope all is well with you today...

Good to hear that your spirits remain high. I, too, am happy to hear that you re in a support group. I know that the disease ha to be awful, but there's nothing like that feeling of hope you get from being around people who have been there, done that. Good luck to you.

If you can believe it we have completed Dewey's 6 weeks of radiation and Tuesday will be his last chemo medicines. He is now sporting a hip hair style :-D Thanks to Janet and Jeff he sported a new ball cap with pony tail to his final radiation treatment. We don't understand, but the staff couldn't stop laughing. Thanks Herbers. Also, we got to bring home his mask today signed by the staff. Now we have a very expensive piece of art ;-)

We saw the doctors this week. The surgeon is pleased with Dewey's recovery and his over all attitude. We see him in another four weeks for a MIR. The ongolgy doctor who oversees his radiation is pleased at how well Dewey did though the process. Dewey is tired this week and that was expected. We are told that the radiation will continue to work for the next four to six weeks. Whenever he goes outside he is to wear sunscreen. His oncologist said that Dewey will be off chemo for four weeks then back on for four months. He will take it five days on and two days off at double the dosage he was taking. His blood count remains in the normal range, but they will be checking that every four weeks.

We went to a support group Tuesday, which was very good for us. We were with people who have survived this awful cancer. One is five years, another three and another two. Then there was a lady who was diagnosed last October with the same level as Dewey. Give us hope.

The most important part of this process is all of you and your prayers. No one knows what tomorrow will bring, but today we know we have life and it is filled with love of family and friends. May God bless all of you with good health, serenity and prosperity.

Love you all,
Dewey and Sharon
