I wanted to let everybody know that I withdrew from the EFOP.  My son’s cancer has returned and life has otherwise gotten very complicated for me.  Zachary is expected to be accepted into a study at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York.  He is stable right now due to receiving a weekly maintenance dose of chemo, but there has been little progress of eliminating the disease.  But then this cancer is so aggressive that freezing the progress is better than 80% of most patients. The bottom line is that I just don’t have the time or motivation to finish my ARP, much less the program.  Chuck was gracious and offered to help me get back in if I so choose.

 

Thanks for all your support and ya’ll get r done!

Steve,

My heart and prayers go out to your son and family. My wife's parents both were taken because of cancer and her sister has had two successful battles so far with breast cancer and lung cancer. I have some what of an idea of how life becomes turned around and upside down.

Take care,

Scott Schneider

Steve,

 

You made the right choice. The ARP is demanding and your son and the rest of the family need you and your devoted attention. Your son and family are in our prayers as well.

 

Jerry

Thanks for the update Steve, although I wish the news was better. Your family will be in the thoughts and prayers of our family as you wage war against this disease. It was an honor to meet you in the ED class. Please stay in touch and let us all know how he is progressing.
Regards,
Wayne Harder
