December 25th
Today we realized the joy of Christmas and the power of believing as we watched the boys open their gifts. Nothing gives us more joy then watching the excitement in their eyes, as the open the presents left under the tree. We recognize that Christmas is not just about the presents -but the belief that something magical has occurred, the joy of giving, and the time spent with family and friends. We know that Santa's elves, angels, and/or really good people- call them what you want- are surrounding us. THANK YOU- doesn't even begin to demonstrate our gratitude for all of the gifts that we have received. Physical gifts and the gifts of love & support. Thank you. Merry Christmas and Happy New Year.

December 9th - 18th
It has been a long time since my last post. Maybe shaving my head caused my literary skills to suffer. ;)
Things have been relatively uneventful. I have continued with radiation and chemotherapy for this entire period. My final radiation treatment is scheduled for December 28th.
Then we will move on to the next phase of the treatment, which is a four week rest period. Chemotherapy will continue the end of this rest period. The schedule for the chemotherapy is five days on and twenty-three days off for six months.
The doctors will be scheduling regular MRIs to track the progress of the treatment.
I will keep everyone updated on my progress.

Hair be gone!
And now they have no hair. I finally shaved all my hair off my head along with my brother-in-law, Brian and my neighbor John. We both think we have pretty good heads!

December 3rd - 6th
Everything is going really well. My blood results came back on Tuesday in normal range. My radiation treatments are going really well. Basically, everything is going really smoothly.
We are going to bring Bryce and Trey to the hospital to get a tour of where I get my treatment. Tammy and I think they will really like this. The nurse is going to get them a present and put it in the radiation room for them to find.
Tammy and I are really thankful for all the help everyone is giving to us. We are blessed by very thoughtful family and friends.
