With the help of Jill J. we have created a blog!!
Today we got the hickman catheter on left shoulder. This will facilitate the administration of the Chemotherapy drugs. The hickman catheter goes from your chest over your collarbone onto the superior vena cava (for all you dummies it goes to your main vein) it ends just above the opening of the heart. I had a heart ultrasound and could hear the sound of it opening and closing. So Cool! The consistent rhythm was good to hear!!! They will start Chemotherapy tonight at 6:00. Ruth's Chris fillet was brought in to honor the occasion. This was especially nice because when chemo starts everything tastes like rusty nails. Tonight I am looking forward to Smokey and the Bandit if I can see it, my eyes are blurry from some medication.
Today I am thankful for all of the friends and family. I am thankful for the calls.

Smokey and the Bandit rocks!!!
Hi Casey:
Paula just gave me your blog address and what a great idea. A great way we can keep up to the minute with you. Hope your steak was great! Wish you and your family all the best...our prayers are with you.

Casey:
Your Grandmother gave me your blog. I do not now much about such things but I was able to find it and figure out how to reply. It is a great thing.
I have at least one person a day that asks me how you are doing. You have a lot of friends here that are concerned and offering prayers for you. I will share it with them.
It is too hot and dry here. The crops are suffering. O well that is farming. On Monday Jim Jensen, Alex, Kim Cambell and I rode our bikes over to Kootney lake north of Creston, in to Washington and over to Kalispell and home. About 1000 miles. 3 days with camping overnight. A good time.
Take care, Delton
Casey, it is great to have this blog available. I am here with Grammy (this is Jeff Pitcher typing). We are all praying for you and wish you the best. Delton is right, it is HOT here in Southern Alberta. We look forward to hearing from you and can't wait to read the next post. Post pictures as soon as you can.
Casey,
Best of luck to you with your upcoming Chemo. I bet that was the tastiest hunk of dead cow ever! We're all praying for you and your family. Hang in there!
Jill's sister.
Hey Casey... we found your blog... we will keep in touch and keep your awesome paperwork and clients up fo you.... Take care, thoughts and prayers from Shawn & JoAnn
Good Luck Buddy!! Just don't let any of your lunches go rotten, we don't want a repeat of crossing the border! Everyone gagging in the back of the car!
You are a strong man, Casey. Good luck with the treatments. You need to get you butt back into the office. It is far to quiet. I need to hear every detail of your phone conversations.
I am surprised that you knew what a blog was, let alone how to set it up. If your family reads my posts, they will think that we hate each other. But we don't... or do we? (The plot thickens)
Hey Casey---the blog is a great idea (thanks Jill!)
We are heartbroken you're going thru this again, but you and Lani are in our prayers--we'll come visit you soon and bring some lollipops for ya---check out our new blog to keep yourself entertained!!! (thedixonfamilynews.blogspot)
Good Luck, Casey.
Hi Casey. We love you and wish you luck. You are in our prayers.
Casey
Sounds like the party was a blast, but true friends would tube feed and enjoy the party along with you instead of hauling out into the hall. Tell 'em to get with the program, eh?! It truly is hot here, not like there, thank heavens. Hay silage just finished and covered the pile this am. Thought of the pics we took with all the sons-in-law and Jesse and Chad covering the pile a few years ago. Fun??? Will start grain silage on Monday. We look forward to having the kids. Love ya! Mom
Casey,
Kes and I had so much fun with you and your family up at Duck Creek! We are so sorry this is happening to you. It sounds like you have a lot of friends and family that love and care about you. We wish you and your family the best.... you are in our prayers.
Kes and Rachel Andersen

Hi Casy & Lany,
I can see that what ever I did to send best wishes to you in July did not work as it never showed up. Here I go again.
Our love to you at this new difficult time. You continue to 'give' strength to all, thank you for sharing.
Sure love you. Aunt Montez & Uncle Jim
