Update: Sunday Nov 10, 2024

Hello friends!


Things are looking good so far. I just completed my 3rd chemo pump treatment today. I had the chemo pump they required me to wear for 96 straight hours, they removed it Friday.  I now have two weeks recovery before my next treatment.

I am at chemo treatment day 44 out of 126.  Each treatment is 21 days and I have 6 total chemo treatments.


I am holding up better than expected. I still have my hair and have not lost any weight.  I know it still may hit me any time, but so far so good.  Heck...I even still have my stache!  Ha!


Today I had a complete 2nd opinion from The famous Cleveland Can**r Center.  I spoke with their doctor about my treatments in the past and the future.  The good news is they totally agree with what my docs have been doing here in Florida, as well as my treatment program.  That 2nd opinion was a good decision. It gave me a piece of mind.  


I ran a 5k race last Sunday in Lake Mary. Ha, it sure was very powerful for my soul and my mental well being.  For me to actually finish in the top 30%, in a 3.1 mile race out of 300 runners, had me carrying a smile for days! For those that wonder about me jogging and exercising during treatments, I asked this doctor from Cleveland Clinic that same question. His response was to absolutely keep running. He said studies were done that clearly show that exercising at any time, actually helps the body fight this bad disease. Now that..... makes me smile.


Next up, a very very important petscan on Monday.  This is the one. This is the most important test in months.  If I am shown clear, then I will have a blessing to my prayers.  Please say a prayer for me on Monday, as I will be extremely nervous on what the tests will or will not show. I also expect a 48 hour window to get the results of this petscan, after it is done.


Anyhoo, life is good and I feel blessed to still be able to be in this fight and still have chances to Victory!  I do not know God's plan, but I do believe he will use me the best way he sees fit.  I'm good with that.


God tells me to keep punching the devil in the face, and he will be close by. He says to never lose Faith, because Faith is my sword as well as my shield.


I am still humbled by all the prayers, financial help and the well wishing from all of you.  I can never repay you for how you have kept me going in this long slow dark journey.


To all of my irrigation clients, I cannot express the gratitude I have for your patience of still staying with me in these difficult times.  Quality Irrigation will be back stronger than ever, as soon as I get the green light.  Carl and Wendy are working extremely well at keeping things going smoothly.  If you are having any issues that need addressing, please call the office and we will get it on the schedule. I cannot thank you enough. 


I will do another update, after petscan results are in.


May God Bless you all,

Jonny, the life lover.
