The latest

I went to the Doc. today and found out that things aren't as bad as I thought. They have determined that I have a tumor caused by the Leukemia (sorry that I cannot remember the exact terminology for it). It is usally associated with the Leukemia (ALL). It is very treatable and we will be doing tests all week to find out if and where it has spread. The treatment is a combination of Chemoytherapy (injeccted into my spinal fluid and my personal favorite 3 days of regular Chemo), I will be getting a hickman catheter placed in my chest. This will be the 6th time that I have had that done. I wonder if the surgen could just put some sort of a faucet in my chest. I did have my only other procedure done this morning, a Bone Marrow Biopsy. Nothing like showing up to the appointment to find out your having a B0ne Marrow Biopsy.

Our little vacation was great. We had so much fun that we did not want to come home. We did all kinds of things from walking through a maze and playing mini golf to riding horses and watching bears. We also rafted down the river a coupl.e of times. Big thank you goes out to Randy Stewart who lent out his rafts to us. Some of our group jumped off of the cliffs those who did not lose their sanity stayed on the shore. We had a family rodeo. That was the big event, mutton bustin, chicken scramble, and a good round of steer decorating. There were some extra curricular activities of which the favorite was collecting keys from all of Gary's old trucks.

Anyway I will update later on
