Hello all
Quick update for the latest chemo round. We got really good news on Tuesday. I had a CT scan of my lungs which showed tumor shrinkage! Jenn and I had been expecting that, but of course were anxious for this news for a while. Basically it means the chemo is working and we will continue with the current protocol until the tumors stop responding. So it’s two more 3 day rounds of chemo for me which started Tuesday. After this round, wait 3 weeks then another. 3 more weeks then another CT scan to see how it’s all working. Our oncologist was pleased with the results, which is really encouraging.
So now, I’m getting my last day of chemo for the week and will wait out the usual post chemo blues in bed over the weekend. This round so far has been much less taxing than the last couple – mostly due to less leg pain and no more double vision.
Next week we have our next prosthetic appointment which hopefully will also be full of progress. I’ll write more after that.
Please keep the prayers and thoughts coming. They are always appreciated. Have a good weekend!

Great news, Hunter. Glad to hear it! You’ll have lots of “real-world applications” to share with the cadets when you get here. 🙂
After putting your name on a prayer request at the Brevard Davidson River Presbyterian Church, I received a postcard yesterday that a group of our members had prayed for your response to cancer treatments. It appears to be working! YEAH!!!!
Wonderful news Hunter! Praise God from whom all blessings flow!!! Will certainly be praying for you and all the family. God Bless you!
Hunter,
That’s super! I’m so happy for you and your family. It’s wonderful that all the hard work you’ve been putting into your treatments has paid off with such great progress.

PS — I went to the Dr’s office. The gal gave me an i-pad to sign in on. “What do I do with this?” She looked at me incredulously and took it back. Rolling her eyes, she gave me a form for medical history etc. on a clipboard with pen.
“I can handle that – I can write”.
Great to hear this!
This is such wonderful news Hunter!! Give big hugs to everyone from all of us. Jadelle

Great news Hunter!
“I’m sooooo excited and I just can’t hide it. I’m about to lose control and I think I like it!” Picture me sock footed sliding across my hardwood floors singing this to you. Ok, the reality is that I, too, am picturing myself doing this-a bruised rib has me temporarily sidelined…
Continuing to send you light and love from our hearts to yours. Woo Hoo!
While you rest up this weekend and now that your double vision is gone, would you mind going to my website and posting comments on images that you like? I would greatly appreciate it! (www.lov2shoot.com) 😉
