Thanks For Your Prayers

Some of you might remember that I was diagnosed with a very bad form of leukemia(MDS) in early June. Luckily it was detected before it started affecting other bodily functions.

Since then I had two chemo treatments at preparation for a bone marrow transplant(the only true posible cure). The first chemo put the cancer in remission but with leukemia you can't trust that.

I was released yesterday after having the bone marrow transplant done last week. My doctor said my progress as been great since the first chemo. I will have to stay home another 3 months as the new blood/bone marrow(I was B+ now I am O+) learns it new home.

Then I can start back to work with the immune system of a young child.

I heartfully thank all of you that had sent me e-mails and who prayed for me!

Glad to hear things are looking up Chuck. Keith Hanna and I spoke about you at SevenStock and I told him to pass along my best wishes again. Although we've never met, you've been a great help to me on PFC issues over the years and a valued and trusted source for PFC tuning information. Nice to know that the man upstairs was listening to all of us. Keep us posted on your progress!!

Take care,
Tim
