Well Lookie here......

Last night was another step forward....I actually played in my 1st softball game in 9 months!!! I cannot describe the feeling of stepping out on the field and to have my wife there to witness my excitement was amazing. God is so good to me...allowing me to do something I thought would take a few years to get back too....My performance wasnt that great, I did go 1-4 with 2 RBI's, but for the 1st time seeing live pitches in nearly a year...I will take that.

Last Friday, Michele and her family stopped by on their way to the beach. Thanks guys for the gifts and the visit. I feel like we are part of the same family. Enjoy your vacation, ALL of you deserve it. I cant wait until we can get to spend some more time together.

I am meeting more and more people affected by cancer on a daily basis. I ask that you PRAY for a cure to rid us of this terrible disease. I do have a special prayer request, I have a scan on May 28th to see the progress, read-destruction of the spots left in my liver. Please join with us in this prayer.

Thanks for stopping by.

Believe,

Kevin

The end of the 12 is in sight....

As I sit here typing, the chemo is dripping into my body. This is round 11 of a scheduled 12. This cycle may be continued for another few, I am not sure yet. I have done extremly well with the side effects and it has shown promising results on what is still left in my body.

The neuropathy has started in my finger tips. I have been blessed to make it this far before it has started. I know God is good to me by allowing me to make it this far. Overall I am doing well with the chemo, although I really just do not want to be here today.

Tonight, I will get to meet one of my internet friends who has defeated this beast. Michele and her family will be making the trip to the coast of NC and is planning on stopping by our house tonight. We have never met, just have be praying for each other since the start of our battle.

Over the weekend, I was able to attend the Busa Bash at Deals Gap. Over 130 Busa's made the trip this year. Being able to spend some time out riding and bench racing with my friends was therapeutic. Thanks to all that hugging my neck, shook my hand and let me know they are praying for me.

This is a shot from our photo shoot on Saturday:



On Saturday, I was able to take a 08 Hayabusa for a spin. With in a few passes, I was already draggin my knees through the corner...





Folks, I challenge you to evaluate your life. Have you asked Jesus into your heart? Time is short and NONE of us are guaranteed another breath.

Where will you spend eternity?

Believe,

Kevin
