Man I though we had it made this time, but the infection is back in the end of his bone on his stump. So another surgery to take a little more off hopefully they get to good or better tissue as well. He is going to Washington this time and he will go Monday and has his Doc appointment Tuesday and if all goes as he thinks maybe next Friday will be the big day.
We have hear so much good about this doctor too and I think it actually has a Georgetown association of some kind.
Anyway hope this one is the last. He had been doing the bike riding, like 50 mile trips a day with a hand peddled bike, but the last one he went on was some kind of wounded warrior thing in Florida and he made it 175 miles of the 250 it was to be. That was just before we went there for Christmas and went from Sunday to Wednesday so he had to stop one day early because of his leg started having some trouble.
I know a lot of you have followed this for the last several years since he was blow up in Iraq so just wanted to bring everyone up to date and will also report back in a month or two with how it does.
We have high hopes from the stories we have been told about this Doctor.
Thanks, Skip

Yeah it is hard to believe this all started Dec. 2006. Long hard road with plenty of turns. However on the other hand we do have good reason to think this just may be the one to end all this for good. If it would have just healed all the way at some point, but it has not. The guy he's going to this time has had great suxccess with problems like this.
Thanks all, Skip

This is a silent killer and everyone needs to know that a woman's yearly exam does not diagnose this cancer. If you feel like helping this cause contact me or give to the NOCC/Team Reeve. Also contact me with questions on symptoms!

Sounds like he is all heart. Our hearts are with him as well. When you get him back home, Have him give us a shout if he likes fishing like dad. (actually we have a chapter near him up there too, but it is COLD up north right now). http://www.heroesonthewater.org/

COMING SOON! .. THE STICKLE HOOK " the stay level sickle hook". sits level in the water with all knots.! Provides better hook sets and more natural jigging motion. No more adjusting the knot, gluing , or tying loop knots that cause the hook point to tangle in the loop, or worse knick the line.. The jighook that will make all others obsolete !
