Howdy Folks,

Sorry I haven't returned posts, PMs or even phone messages to my friends and family at CVO. I've held off so I could give the full scoop on the many reports I've been waiting for from my Doctors.

Oh ya!! I did make it to WI and back, man was I some beat. I went right to bed when I got home and 3 days later or so I woke up to an upper respitory infection.

I had a ct-csan and a bone scan and every kind of blood test and who knows what else they pulled off from the time I got home and Thanksgiving. ( I Hope Everyone Had A Great Thanksgiving!!! ) Sue and I went to my daughters house where she and Shauns wife, Amy made a great dinner. So it was 5 grown-ups and 6 grandboys. I was ready to hit the road and in a little over an hour I was fast asleep in my bed. I sleep all day that Friday and finally goy up on Saturday.

Whoops, back to the doctors report, well, it didn't go so good. Of the many tumors I have growing in my chest cavity 2 of them grew by 50%, one of which is wraped around my hearts aorta valve. Another tumor grew by a third and another one grew by 25%. All the other tumors in my chest remained some what stable with the exception of the tumors that have grown between my ribs and are having a field day between my rib cage and my breast muscle, ouch, lots of pain from there. And just as a bonus, I now have a new tumor. It's in my abdomen and in only 2 months has grown to measure 3 1/2 inches by 4 1/2 inches.

My kidneys have been ruined so the Doctor has a bright idea to give me a chemo that unlike the previous should not harm my kidneys any more. However, this new chemo would most likely harm my liver and my heart. Well, I declined any furhter treatment. Don't get me wronge, I haven't given up or given in, I have just given over!

I've always known that I haven't been in control of this whole situation, or maybe to say in more clearly, It's all been out of my control.

For now I'm going to remain on pain med's. I started my second prescription of a patch I wear for 3 days before I change it. The first cycle for the patch was half the dose as the one I wear now. I don't seem to have any side effects and the pain seems to be a little less than before. So maybe they're onto something.

Anyway, thanks to all of you and I'll write sooner next time
riding with you
Sam

Thanks for the update Sam,  I kind of felt that the next news we would hear from you would not be the kind of news we would like to hear.  That being said, just knowing that your inner peace with the path that Our Maker has set out for you, is once again an inspiration to us all.  I pray that the new meds keep you comfortable as you continue your fight.  God be with you and Sue and Your family for a very Merry Christmas.

Thanks Sam.......my thoughts & prayers are with you and Sue thru this and so glad to hear from you.  spyder

Sam, only you can know the path that is right for you, my mother in law is going through the same type of thing right now, but she has chosen more chemo and has been very sick from it and her chances are slim that it will do much for her, but that's a decision she has made. I think you have kept a great attitude through all the treatments and mess with the Doctors. I pray for you and Sue every day, keep the faith brother, you and Sue give eachother strength to deal with this.
