Vacation pics......and more answered prayer.

Today was round 10, hip hip hooray!!!! I am doing well with 10, just a few more to go. My platelet count was very low for 9, it had dropped to 108. Today it was back at 160. This is nothing but answered prayer.

Now for a few vacation pics.

Last but not least, us again.....




We are so thankful we were able to sneak away for a few days. God IS SO GOOD to us. I will have a 2 week break to go to the Busa Bash at Deals Gap on the 25th. looking forward to seeing some of my hooligan friends.

Brenda and I still ask for your prayers. This treatment is getting rough each time, but I thank Jesus for helping me every step of the way.

Believe,

Kevin

I am such a slacker.....

March 18th....wow, I need to post more. In Casa de Vman things are going as planned. I had round 9 of my chemo cocktail last Friday. The good news, my abdomen is healed and my Onc added Avastin back to the mix. It makes for a long treatment, 5 hours, but I know it is what is gonna make me better.

I am cleared to start playing softball again and I hope to get some batting practice in soon, I am only 3 months behind, lol. There are a few of us that start hitting in January. I dont know how my reflexes will be so I am going to start the season off a few levels below what I normally play.

It seems that everyday I am so thankful for being ALIVE. Cancer may still be in my body but the drugs are working. All the experiences over the last few months have made me a better person. I know that is hard for some to fathom. But believe me when I say.....do not take your life for granted.

Thanks for all the prayers, emails, calls......they mean so much to both of us. We both still have out days that register high on the tear scale(borrowed from Michele and used WITHOUT premission, lol).

I know some are asking for vacation pics....as soon as I can get some time to resize them I will post them up.

Keep in touch.

Believe,

Kevin
