Hope

What a word. For many years, I used it without ever considering the FULL meaning of the word. I am so thankful I still have hope and the desire to continue attacking this disease with everything I have got. As my fellow fighters know, treatment can sometimes get harder, and that is the cold hard facts of chemo. I just want to say round 8 was my best yet! Thank you Jesus for allowing that to happen. We are both so blessed.

On Friday, we did discuss options when my cycle is over. It looks like I am gonna switch to the oral version of 5FU with an infusion of Avastin every 2 weeks for 6 months or so. Onc wants my mets to be as small as possible before RFA. I am not looking forward to more chemo, but I know that is my road to recovery.

Vacation update....just a little bit of good news. Vacation Express has issued us a large credit to our credit card for all the issues we experienced in Cancun. It is so nice to see customer service still alive and working.

We cannot say it enough, thanks for all the prayers, calls, email, cards, etc. Both of us know, I am still in a battle for my life. Yes progress is being made, but I have along way to go. I have put 100% of my Faith in God for complete healing. To all my friends and fighters, keep up the fight and never throw in the towel.

Believe,

Kevin
