Thanks for asking, Fortunately they removed the Sarcoma from under my arm about a month ago, unfortunately it had metastasized from my lung which was my first occurrence of cancer back in May 2015, so now we're going full force with chemo and then radiation. The 1st round was ok, got discharged on Tuesday and by Sat there was no nausea so just dealing with indigestion and some stomach issues. 2nd round of chemo starts on 3/31.

Thanks, no I'm in Tampa Florida. I'm lucky I'm about 30 miles from Moffit Cancer & Research Center, everyone is great there. Glad to hear your daughter is getting excellent treatment, it was very difficult to watch your video as I have a 10-year-old daughter of my own. Kids are resilient and fearless, especially our young daughters. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rattlesnake88 Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 @daveakl came across this thread. My wife is losing her aunt to cancer. Been spending a lot of time thinking about it and life in general. I'm in tears after watching that video of your daughter's journey with cancer. Im so very sorry y'all had/have to endure that. But you all seem like a very strong family. And what an admirable little girl. I have a large family myself, 3 daughters and two sons. So I know the joy of having that much life and love in day to day life. Our prayers will be sent your way. I wish you all a long and prosperous life as a family! There aren't many of us out there (large families) brave enough to take on so many babies!

Gerd_Mueller Posted May 5, 2017 Share Posted May 5, 2017 Man, this thread is tough to read. My best wishes and prayers go out to anyone who is suffering from cancer or knows someone who is. My mom lost her second husband to cancer many years ago and it still hurts. To those battling cancer, keep up the fight. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hubby's been having to use my car a little, trying to fix a leak in his truck...my keys have an Abby's Army wristband on 'em, and he said he's had to explain the pink(for my mom) and purple to everyone, "Abby's a victim of childhood brain cancer, the NFL is in on it, go to the website", so I hope you're getting some more traffic/donations. And @jschuck12001...you got this. I know the chemo is tough...hang in there one last time. We're here for ya.

JSSkinz Posted August 1, 2017 Share Posted August 1, 2017 I finished my 6th and final round of chemo 2 Saturdays ago and went in for follow up and final scan review today. All is clear now so I guess I have to white knuckle it for the duration as I will get follow up scans every 3 months. Back to life as it was. Thanks for the support.
