Fun and Games in Las Vegas

Well there have been huge developments in my life over the last 48 hours. I found a lump on one of my Testicles and now have testing done to rule out Testicular cancer. It happens to be one of the most curable types of cancer. They did remove one of the Testicles, apparently we can put a man on the moon but cannot find a better way to test for this type of cancer. Oh well they were burned out from all of the radiation that I had to have for the bone marrow transplant. I guess the man upstairs thought that Leukemia wasn't enough but now lets dabble a little bit in Testicular cancer. I will approach this the same way I did with Leukemia, maybe now I will be able to get an honorary doctorate degree in Oncology.

Outside of that we have been having a great summer. The kids are up in Alberta, Sam has been riding calves, horses, and his personal favorite is baling hay with his Grandpas. Max and Aubree have been doing alot of playing. What better way to spend the summer than on Grandpa's farms,no rules, no fences, and no extreme heat.

Update on Lani and I. Lani had girls camp this past week. Unfortunately Lani had to come home a couple of days early due to my surgey. I really thought that I could do it without her, man am I glad that she was home to take care of me.

I have been fixing our cars as the brakes on the Suburban went out, not that bad as I don't drive it. The worst was when the Air Conditioning on my fantastic Mustang went out. I was lucky this time and was able to fix them both myself, ok I lied Al had to hekp me with the A/C as I couldn't see good enough to put the bolts back in the hole.

I won't have any other news with the Testicular Cancer until I return from the mother land, until then please pray for me, I could use the extra help.

love

Casey

We will definitely keep you in our prayers. Yes, I think you've had enough education now to earn that doctorate! Keep us posted as things develop.

Wow! For sure we will still pray for you! Glad Lani could come home and take care of you, that probably was not the most comfortable recovery!

Heard about your new excitement. Definitely praying for you, and we are really excited to see you guys next week in Canada! Hope you are on the mend!

If it isn't one thing it is another. I am sorry to hear about that. We will keep you in our prayers. Ken was just saying last night about going to girls camp last year and how Lani couldn't go and how the other leaders were scrambling.
