Shock

On September 27th, 2008 I was diagnosed with stage 4 pancreatic cancer that has metastasized to my liver. The doctors have given me 4 to 6 months to live without treatment and 8 to 9 months with treatment. I do not accept this. Those that know me, know I like a good fight and this is no different, I will fight this tooth and nail. I know the Lord is on my side and I know with Him anything is possible. I also need you on my side so please continue to pray for me and my family.

I started this blog because I thought it would be the best was to keep friends and family informed so please check back periodically for updates. I have an appointment Wednesday Oct. 1 at Piedmont so I will try to update you on Thursday.

You and your family will be in our prayers everyday. I know that you can look this ugly moster straight in the eyes, kick it square in the balls and leave it in a shivering heap on the floor, and never look back! I love you and I am going to be rooting you on every step of the way. If there is anything, and I mean anything we can do for you, or Nicole just let us know.
Take Care and Kick ass
I love ya

I've seen that fighting attitude before and know that nothing that sees it from the wrong side has a chance in hell. You're in our prayers and stay strong.
