STILL WAITING..... 

There really isn’t anything to write about Rocky’s titles yet. Coach is a busy man and he’ll get to it in a few days. He works hard for the Missouri APA, has an administrative job over a school or two, a wife and two little boys. I have emailed him for information as to all that so when I hear something I’ll get on the site and let you know.

We’ve been at the Oncology Clinic all day and we’re both beat. Nothing new there to report…..everything seems pretty stable so far and he’s getting the same treatment as before with a couple of “add-ons” as per nausea etc; It’s a never ending battle…..but Rocky looks good and feels pretty decent…..that’s always a plus. Unlike poor Ellen who has vomited most of her food up for months on end, he is blessed with just an “icky” feeling as he calls it.

We ran into the lady again I knew from one of the Courthouses where our crew gave Driver’s Tests……..her son is looking very bad….he is in his late 40’s, an engineer by trade, unmarried and came home to his mother when they lost his dad three weeks before he found he, himself, had cancer. It started in his colon, went to the liver and is in the hip joint. I feel very sorry for the two of them and if you have extra prayers sometime, his name is Rick…..that will be enough for God to know who you are praying for.

Thank you for the prayers, the congratulations for Rocky’s Powerlifting Meet and the love and concern you always send our way. You are the best!!

I’ll be back tomorrow with more time to put some words on paper. And so with that, I say good night and God bless!!
