Week Five

Oklahoma City-week five.  Patty and I awoke early this morning for the trip down to Oklahoma City and ProCure.  This is week five of treatments.  In fact, as I'm writing this treatment #24 is complete.  I was able to get right in and the treatment went fantastic.

Being honest, this is hump week.  When I started these treatments I kept telling myself if I could just get July to go by fast, well the last of July is here and I can't wait.  When this week is done, I'll have completed 28 treatments.  It's all down hill after this week.  I know August will fly by. Total treatments 44.

Anyhow, another week of treatments begin, they are starting to add up.  Only 20 more trips to ProCure and I will have completed my last treatment for Prostate Cancer.  I'm really feeling good. No side effects and last week while Shane was here with me my energy level was high.  I had a great week with Shane, we put in a lot events and saw a lot of things in such a short amount of time.  Thank you Shane.  He back in Hastings Nebraska working at Hastings College getting ready for those college students.  Good luck and have a great year Shane.

Such a tragic weekend for the Nebraska football team.  Senior punter Sam Foltz was killed in a car wreck in Wisconsin.  Life is so fragile,  I have a link to a tribute the 10/11 sportscaster did on the life of Sam Flotz, take a quick peek at the link it only takes 2 minutes.  What a great young man.  He's #27 in the picture below and this was a tweet he sent out just last week.  We need more young men like him.  RIP.

Sam's tweet about a week ago, what a quote.



You never know who's watching.. What impact do you wanna leave on the next generation to aspire too?!

Life goes on, treatments go on, the sun comes up and sets in the evening. No one ever said it would be easy.
