Hello Family and Friends,
Our meeting last week with the Oncologist brought us very sad and shocking
news. Mike's cancer is not only back, but in the brain and spinal cord. It
is inoperable and the doctor's best guess was that he would have anywhere
from 2 weeks to 2 months. The only positive t

Sorry to send this information over mass email, but it's the fastest way to
keep everyone informed. Over the last couple of weeks, Mike has been very
disoriented, sleeping a lot and losing weight. The MRI test that he had
earlier this week indicates that the cancer ha

Hi, everyone,
Team Hammond here with the results of my PET scan. Yesterday we learned
that I will be going back in for chemo starting today. There were a couple

Hi Everyone,
It has been a long time since the last update from Team Hammond. Almost 5

Well, here we are for the next update on Team Hammond. The second round of
Chemo finished on Wednesday, October 14. Mike, at that point was also down
to only 12 radiation treatments left. After the treatment on Thursday the
15th, we had a consultation with the Doctor and he was very positive.
Just a quick note to let you know that my chemo for this week was cancelled.
The Doctor did not feel that overall I was in good enough shape to undergo a
round. So, the next round of chemo has been scheduled to start next
Monday at 1030 am. This means I will be there until about 3 pm. The ne

Well, I am back from three days at the hospital. Here is what happened in

My white blood cell count was in the critical area.
Hi Everyone,

We finally got Mike's schedule for radiation and chemo. Mike had his fist
radiation treatment Thursday. The anticipation of the unknown was the most
stressful part of the treatment, but the 20 minute session went relatively
smooth. Eight consecutive weeks have been scheduled thu
Well, everyone, here is your first update. Before I begin, however, I would
like to thank all of you who have kept me and my family in your prayers, it
means a lot. Don't stop, though, as the next 7 weeks or so are going to be
a little rough. I especially want to thank my family, without their
