Earl, I myself had cancer ~ 10 years back, Thyroid Cancer. After my surgery they gave me Radioactive Isotopes, I was in isolation for about 10 days. Basically me and everything I touched was radioactive, everything that could absorb my sweat was considered hazardous waste. Different kind of cancer, different treatment.



I still take medication every morning because I no longer have a Thyroid to regulate my metabolism. What I guess I am trying to say, I made it so try to keep a positive outlook. You can beat this thing.



I will be thinking of you.

Earl. get through this as soon as possible. We need your input here.

I have to believe that a ride in your Bird now and then would be great medicine.

Hang tough Earl! Our thoughts and prayers are with you. I had hodgkins disease 7 years ago at only 41, (Lymphoma Cancer) it never slowed me down. The worst part of it was when I was going for radiation and my cancer was in the groin area, I had to lie on the table with my privates in a lead clam shell about 3/4" thick and the doctor would say, we have an inturn here today, you don't mind if she is in the room with you today do you.

Thats all I needed, some cute inturn while I am laying on the bed with my nuts in a lead clam shell.

You surely didn't want to pinch yourself with those chunks of lead either.

First set of Earl's Chemo went well. He isnt real happy about the way he is feeling but he is doing well as could be expected. His doctors are encouraged and are holding out for more success as his treatments continue. He said to let all of you know whats going on with his treatments. He still wants to sell his car. Says he cant work on it anymore.

Thank all of you for your kind words and thoughts and prayers. Its a bit hard at times to get through but that we must do. Earl has more treatments in about 2 weeks . We will let you know how it comes out .

EARL,

There are two things to ALWAYS remember;

The power of prayer

The power of positive thinking

God bless you Bro cause you're in the Y-Block family and we will be praying for you just like a family member

I too, thank you for the update. Let Earl know that I sent him an e-mail to the address that he gave me in a private message. He may not feel up to looking it up, but maybe you could read it for him? I plan to be down your way later this month, the beginning of next.

thank you,

Daniel Jessup
