Hot days and great nights!

Kristin and I have had the great pleasure of being able to hang out with some amazing friends lately. We have little "camp fires" and we all sit outside around the fire until 2 or 3 in the morning. We talk about funny stuff and heavy stuff and silly stuff and serious stuff. We laugh and sometimes we cry (well...some of us do). I can't believe how close our friendships have gotten in such a short time. I can honestly say that the friends we have here in TN are my family. If all of this wasn't happening, if we didn't have to leave, I think that we would all get SO close, and don't get me wrong I think that we will still get close, but it will be harder to keep our friendships so strong over such a great distance.
I can't wait to be back home around Kristin's family and my family, but I may be crying the whole way home because of all of the good byes that we will have to say.
This sucks.

Today I am praying that I can make friendships last, and that those I love would know how much I love them.

Almost there!

TODAY I AM HALF WAY THROUGH RADIATION TREATMENTS!!!!

I just thought you would all like to know that!

What I am going to say now is going to sound strange to some of you, especially those of you who know me well...okay, so here it is:
I can't wait until my chemo is done for a while so I can eat breakfast!
Those of you who know me will know that I don't eat breakfast normally, but not being able to eat anything in the mornings makes me really hungry when I wake up for some reason...don't ask me why, I just wish I could eat a pop tart or something!

Well, that is all for now.
I pray that you all have a wonderful day!

Today I am praying that I have more time to show my wife how much I love her.

My head hurts!

I really don't like having brain cancer.
Kristin and are just praying that God will choose to take this away, but if He doesn't we are willing to accept what HE has planned for our lives.

Long day today: To radiation in Knoxville, to postop checkup in Nashville, to home again and now to bed.

Tonight I am wishing that I would have more time to watch my children grow.
