Gettin Older: June 2008
http://gettinolderss.blogspot.com/2008_06_01_archive.html
Friday, June 20, 2008. Well, it appears that Cody does have a fungal infection in his lung. The Doctor prescribed oral Diflucan, but the insurance company said no. So, they have to go in and get IV medication. I cannot understand why insurance companies can say yes or not to the treatment a patient gets and I shudder to think about what would happen if the government got any more into the act. I'll climb down off my soapbox and an ask you to pray for Mickey and Cody and family. Wednesday, June 18, 2008.

I ran for the American. Of a very aggressive. Cancer with everything they have. Is an "orphan" cancer; pharmaceutical...

Friday, February 27, 2009. Y’all hug your kids. Smell their hair, drink them in. We so often overlook the little blessings that are all around us. Those of you that know me might know that that I like to run and I like to race. Every race that I have run since January 2008 has been in a shirt that says “For Dad and Cody”. Dad is recovering from. Cancer and doing very well. Almost a year and a half after starting treatment he is within 5 pounds of his pre-cancer weight and continuing to gain strength.

Monday, May 4, 2009. Sorry for the delay. I'm not sure if there is anyone out there following this blog. If so, I want you to know that I have not dropped off the face of the earth. As expected, Cody passed away on April 6, 2009. I finally had a chance to meet his Dad when I participated in a 24 hour run / Relay for Life Event. Mickey is truly an incredible human being.

Thursday, May 22, 2008. Think about your friends Thursday. I just called my Dad. He had his second chemo treatment yesterday, and he is doing very well.
