Almost Done

They hung Heath's last bag of chemo last night. That's a very welcomed milestone. It's been a long year. Dr. Agresta just came in to congratulate Heath on finishing his chemo.

I just wanted to take time to thank everyone for their thoughts, prayers and support.

Dr. Agresta brought a young lady up yesterday that is writing a book and she had some questions for Heath. We have met a lot of nice people and want to stay involved somehow. I will keep this blog updated from time to time on what we are doing to stay involved and when Heath needs to visit the clinic.

Thanks again

Last round of Chemo 4-9-2007

Karis is taking Heath to Moffitt for his last round of chemo. Heath is ready to get it started so it will be over. He should be home on Friday, I think.

I want to thank everyone for their support and prayers. Please continue to pray that all his treatments have done their job to keep him cancer free forever.

Cancer Walk at the Beach on 3-9-2007

On March 9th, we went to Coquina Beach for the American Cancer Society's Relay for Life of Anna Maria Island. Heath's band wanted to play but all the members were not available so part of the band and some other friends got together and jammed for a couple hours in front of all the volunteers and workers. We didn't spend the entire night out there but stayed very late and we had a great time. Of course, the crowd was very impressed with their music. Here are a couple of pictures:

Manatee River Community Bank will have 2 teams participating in the Relay For Life of Palmetto. Karis and I will be in one of the teams and we will be staying the entire night. Heath's entire band will be available and playing so please come out and watch them. The opening ceremonies are at 6PM and Heath's band will play shortly after that. Show your support and come out for the opening ceremony.

Karis is a team leader for MRCB Rocks Too. Click here if you would like to donate to this wonderful event.
