MRI results

MRI Results: Well, just last week I finished up another round of chemo. The Dr.’s focus on the 3 big tumors when monitoring the shrinkage. Well, 2 of the 3 big tumors are still slowly, little by little are shrinking!!

Scarcoma caners takes a long time for the cancer cell to react and retract (shrink).  Remember when I had a month off of chemo and the tumors still shrunk? Well, same thing goes with this, just takes some time.

The Dr.’s in Louisville thought it would be a good time to consult with some other Dr.’s that specialize in my specific cancer & surgeons. Dr. Rushing in Indy agrees. Depending on the specialist and surgeons opinions and schedules we will figure out if it is time to have the surgery again or not.

If the surgeon believes that we should not do the surgery, then I will work with Dr. Rushing to figure out another new clinical trial chemo to continue the shrinkage of the tumors until they are resectable.

It has almost been a year of chemo and surgery’s. Good thing I’m a distance guy and I can handle it all and WILL continue to handle it. However, I couldn’t/can’t do it without your thoughts and prayers. I thank you very much for everything you have done for me this year and will continue do for me!

Scar (What’s the story?)

No StaplesStaples

Well here is my scar from the surgery. To the left is what it looks like 4 weeks after surgery (without staples) & to the right is 2 weeks after surgery (with staples). Pretty cool huh?

This is the part where we make this post cool. After looking at these pictures.. What is the story that we can come up with about the scars? I would like to see your comments or email me your creative ideas.

Here are some of my ideas:

1. I got in a knife fight with another guy on the streets. One of us survived.

2. I was swimming and a great white sharks’ dorsal fin cut me. One of us survived.

3. I’m awesome.

4. My X …(insert any story). Then I found $5.

5. Scars are the new “tattoo”.. duh..

6. One time at camp…

7. ihaveascar.com. Its my new website.. Going beta in a few weeks.

8. I got bored
