Good luck in the new regimen Cory! You will continue to be in my thoughts and prayers.

Cory, you've said it yourself ~ you are strong and you are a fighter. Good for you for not going away quietly. Keep the faith, you're in our prayers.

Cory

I hope you and your family had a good Christmas season and all the best in 2008. A new year and hopefully a kick start on your treatments.

All the very best, and you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sorry I have not updated in a while, this new regimen is very tough and the travel on the mountain pass has been stressful. I just finished my seventh treatment of the twelve week regimen on Tuesday (2/5) and have spent most of the following days sleeping on the couch. I could really use some extra prayers for strength, some days I just don't feel like doing all the things that I am supposed to do. I am just so tired. The good news is that my pain level has decreased to about half of what it used to be.

Cory, I'm glad to hear from you - earlier today I was wondering how you were doing. I'm glad you're doing better with the pain, and you do have my prayers for additional strength. Keep us posted.

Cory, thanks for the update. It's good to hear the pain has reduced. As for feeling so tired that you don't feel like doing the things you're "supposed to do", just keep in mind that your full-time job right now is get become well again even if that means sleeping on the sofa all day. We are praying that your strength soon returns and that the sofa won't call to you so loudly.

Cory.... Your thoughts and prayers are with you.... I am so glad that the pain is less... I am a RegN and know how important that is... take care and rest...

Just a quick update, on Monday was admitted to our local hospital with internal bleeding. I had to stay there Monday through Wednesday. My bloodhemoglobin level was at 5.8 and should be in the 10-14 range. They had to give me four units of blood just to get it close to that level. The GI doctor went in and did an upper GI, he found several lesions that he cauterized so now my stomach is very sore. I hope that my blood levels are good on Monday so that I can receive my Chemo treatment on Tuesday. Only four more treatments until this regimine is over.

Cory, glad to hear from you, although I was hoping you'd be having a bit easier time of it! At least the mountain passes are cooperating a bit better lately. Hey - only four more weeks of this treatment - you're almost there! Hang in there ~

Cory - Somebody here has already said it, but keeping yourself in a positive mental attitude, the attitude that confirms from within your soul, that YOU ARE GOING TO BEAT THIS CANCER. Please stay in that mode / attitude. Lots of your Airstream family of friends are all pulling for you.

Please do keep us posted with updates of your journey & progress.

Well, my blood counts were good enough for chemo on Tuesday Feb 26th and went ahead and had my stents replaced so we were in Seattle thruough Feb 27th. when we got back home I felt okay for a while and then I went to our local hospital on March 2nd, and stayed there until March 7th (My daughters birthday) and so far I am feeling real weak. I hope that everyone is good health

goransons · 03-13-2008, 07:56 PM

Glad you are home. Sounds like you're making slow but good progress. keep on winning those battles!

safari57 · 03-13-2008, 08:36 PM

Good to hear from you Cory.

It's good you were able to make it home for your daughters birthday.

We don't like to ask too frequently as we know you have enough to focus on right now, but you are in our thoughts and prayers.

Sugarfoot · 03-13-2008, 08:42 PM

Cory! Glad to hear you are home. There's no place like home. And that you were blessed to be there for you daughter's birthday.

Again, you are thought of often and we wish and pray for you a continuing recovery.
