Prayers for TexasCowboy!

TexasCowboy has been using his hip injury as an excuse to prevent his friends from shooting his new riot gun.

Well some of us offered to take a look at it for him and he decided both a proffesional and sober opinion might make more sense.

So he found a coupon and now he is going to let some old saw-bones cut on him.

Probably a better idea than letting us do it, but a few folks feelings are still hurt!

Please all say a prayer for our Cowboy that he is back in the saddle again real soon.

Amen

TC is about as tough as they come, and while it pains all of us to share his ordeal, he's an inspiration to us, too. Prayers for his rapid healing.

Hi TC....

Prayers are still being said and well wishes sent your way.

"Punkin" is out here in the country with me for a couple of days and when I show him your picture, those big blue eyes light up and dance, a smile comes over his face and he says, "TT"!! Guess he's given you his name! But in your case I think it stands for "Tough Texan".

We miss you and send special hugs to you and Faith......

Miss Victoria is not happy to hear of Texas Cowboy's most recent troubles.

I almost think she knew something was up, every time I picked her up last weekend, she's start to howl.

[Texas Termite]

She's absolutely adorable!!! Beautiful eyes and we love her lips. A little blonde with big blue eyes :) Doesn't get much better than that, does it??

It doesn't. I had two of those, 30 1/2 and 25 years ago. Now I've got another. Hoping for more, although a toe headed little boy would be nice too. :)

Hair would be nice though. But neither her mother or her aunt had any either, so that probably was too much to expect.

Hello, family.......

I feel pretty good today so I'm going to take advantage of it and touch base with everyone.
I'm not sure how much info about my day to day condition I can post without boring everyone out of their gourds, but I'll try to be brief. One reason I think this might be important is that there may be someone else out there who is traveling the same road, and my experiences might help.
I don't dwell on horror stories like so many people on the support Web sites. I never look at the whole forest; I concentrate on one tree at a time. When I open my eyes in the morning, I thank God for the gift of another day, and it's the only day that's important.

I'll try to clarify some of the things that became misconstrued over the last two weeks:
The whole body bone scan showed only one bright spot ("bright" equals "bad"). I expected that. It's in the area where the tumor destroyed the femur so there had to be some cancer cells left after the removal of the femur.

The area of the lungs effected by the cancer is in the middle lobe but it has NOT collapsed the lung. It's simply exerting pressure and decreasing the capacity of that area. This is causing shortness of breath, but I have some meds now that relieves the symptoms. The doctor said he could barely detect any change in size of the cancer nodules from the last CAT scan a few months ago.
[Connie, you can tell that old hound that's lucky enough to share your bed that I'll be around to pour the water bucket on his head at the tail gate party next year]

After all this time, I start chemical treatments on the 26th. I am sooo ready!
We can beat this thing, but we have to have the tools to do so.
This is a family effort, and I can feel the love and compassion from all over this land. I don't know why God chose me for this bountiful blessing, but I recognize it and I appreciate it.

Thank you, family, for all your thoughts and prayers.
God bless you all.

TC
