How I Survive Cancer

Technically speaking I am on pain meds galore, zofran as needed and every carcinoid-survivor's best friend, SANDOSTATIN.  I survive day by day through the efforts of doctors, nurses, my loving wife and children and my faith in Christ.
 

How I Fight for a Cure

I wake up everyday, though I am so weak and in so much pain and I choose to live.  My doctors are also trying new drugs on me so if it works, that's a step closer.  We also walked at the local RELAY FOR LIFE...what an inspiration.
 

My Caring Words of Encouragement

Cancer can take so many things from us even mortal life.  But it cannot steal away the hope of healing, the love of family and friends, or the knowledge of a future with Christ in heaven.

Keep fighting it, if not for you, for your family who loves you and needs you in their lives.
