"When you come to edge of all the light you have, and must take a step into the darkness of the unknown, believe that one of two things will happen, either there will be something solid for you to stand on or you will be taught how to fly."
Gary has finished up this weeks chemo, and they did a biopsy on the spots that the scan picked up last week. They have come back as a negative! He will be released this afternoon, and can tentatively go back to work for the next 6 weeks. At the end of the 6 weeks, he will be having another PET scan to determine what is happening. The doctors have told them {that in that time frame} there should either be great improvement, or there will be excess growth; at which time, they will determine whether to do the bone marrow transplant. But for now, we are so thankful for the thoughts and prayers in his behalf. We know that prayers are being answered, and that Gary will be on the mend fully soon. We love you guys - maybe you'll be able to spend the first holiday in 4 months together doing something FUN!

Don't you think it is strange that so many young people are developing cancer? Or maybe we are just most conscious of cancer now. Gary is certainly one of the blessed and we will continue to freely put his name forth in our prayers. Give our love to him and to Heather and the kids. And a great big hug to you.
I hope he continues on this upward path!
Sue, I just wanted to let you know I'd read your blog and the setback Gary had. I'm so glad the test came back negative on those spots! Another week of chemo couldn't have been easy, but thankfully it seems to have done some good.
I am thinking of you and your family, just wanted to drop you a line and say hello too. Andrea
I'm so glad to hear that Gary is on the mend. Cancer is an ugly, mean thing and doesn't care whose lives it invades. It not only affects the person that is ill, but the whole entire family and friends. Our prayers are with him and the whole family, hopefully you guys can get back to a normal life. Pleas remember that I have that frequency machine and are welcome to come use it anytime!
We will be praying for a positive outcome the next six weeks!
That is so good to hear!!!
