Time for an update

Chris is handling radiation/chemo really well at the moment. Was very fatigued at first, but is back on steroids because of some brain swelling, which is "typical" for this treatment and he has responded well to it. His time evolves around appointments and we've decided to bring cribbage to pass the time between them.

We continue to be astonished by the outpouring of care. Your prayers are definately felt.

With Gratefulness,

John and Jeanne

Hey what's up Caswell!?

I recently heard of your situation from my parents and I wanted to stop by here and say hello. You've got some great tennis pics posted!

I don't get down to portage too often but I wanted to share a book with you that I recently read. If you'd like to email me back with your address I'd be happy to send you a copy. It's an incredible book written by a doctor that was diagnosed with brain cancer and his reasoning for writing the book, "This is why I wrote ANTICANCER. I collected in it all the stories – personal and scientific - and also that I wish I could have had with me on bed-side table when I went through the experience myself."

Hope you're doing well Chris.
Peace,
Scott Krohn
