Hello 2010!

The ball dropped and suddenly it's a New Year!
For us it's filled with Hope, and the Promise of Healing!
The radiation oncologist estimates that the tumor has been growing for about a year. So, in 2009 it slowly & quietly grew & spread.
In 2010 we intend to fight it back!

Dave assures me regularly that he will never quit, because he knows that those few that survive are not quitters! The human body and mind are amazing things when they work together, and doctors have been surprised before. People do beat the odds, and that means they defy what their doctors have statistically predicted. Dave is younger and healthier than the typical Esophageal Cancer patient going into this. Our goal is to help the doctors see that, as well as see his determination to beat it.

First and foremost Dave really wants to thank everybody for their constant support and prayers. We know that it's helping us to stay calm and focus on healing.
Dave is encouraged daily when people email, or call, or post a positive note on the Facebook pages. He knows that through all of this, God will be glorified.
Like the rest of the world, we don't know what the year holds for us, but we have been blessed with the reminder to love life!

Have a Happy New Year Everybody!
