Thanks, and what's up

First Casey and I want to say how truly thankful we are for all the love and prayers that have been sent our way. We are truly humbled by all the attention and have realized again in these last couple weeks how blessed we are with amazing people in our lives. It's way more than we deserve, but we are thankful!

For those interested, here's what's happening this week:
Mon - bone marrow biopsy
Wed - PET/CT scans
Fri - insertion of port for chemo

The goal of the biopsy and scans are to see if the cancer has spread beyond the original tumor in my chest. Based on these tests, the oncologist will officially determine the stage of the cancer. Obviously, we are praying for no further indications of cancer, which would make it stage 1 or at most 2. The cure rates for my kind of non-hodgkins lymphoma in the early stages is very high!

Regardless of the stage, I will start chemotherapy next Wednesday, January 14th.

  4. My thoughts and prayers are with you and you family Adam. I have cancer on three sides of my family so I know how hard it is. My grandfather on my dads side currently has kidney cancer and my mom's sister currently has pancreatic cancer.
