No news is good news

Randy has had this week off. I hear he is enjoying his time at home and reading lots. The rest of the family is busy with baseball and softball tournaments. I believe he is back up to the hospital on Monday for more chemo.

Hospital Again

Randy went up to the hospital for his usual chemo on Monday. He is feeling good and spending time reading. They are looking forward to coming home on Wednesday as long as all goes well.

Baseball Games and tests

Thanks for coming out - even when it was sooo hot!!!

The Volcanoes pulled out a win at the end of the game.

It really was a special night.

As of Thursday, Randy had not cleared, so he could not stay at the game long. They came down, did the pitch and met the players and coach, and stayed for a little while, then headed back up to the hospital. I am sure the air conditioned hospital was nicer for him. He did clear on Friday and was able to come home for the weekend.

An answer to prayer...Randy had some more tests done on his heart to check how things are going, as chemo can affect it and he is going great. The doctors did have some concerns before, but the tests confirmed that he is going just fine. It is nice to have good news.

Chemo again on Monday - keep him in your prayers!!!

Baseball Game TOMORROW!!!

Randy is still in the hospital, feeling pretty good. Just waiting for his chemo counts to go down a bit so he can GET OUT OF THERE!!! He is down enough to get a pass to go to the game, but if he is not all the way down, then he will have to go back up after the game. For those of you that do not know...

Randy and Lisa's first pitches are at 5:57 PM

Game time is 6:35 PM.

You can come in at 5:30 PM

See you guys there!!!

A few T-Shirts

Randy is back up getting chemo and trying to get cleared by Thursday's Volcanoes game. There are a few t-shirts left -- 3 smalls, 2 mediums, and 4 larges. XL should be available on Tuesday. Please let us know if you need some. If you would like a shirt, please leave your # or E-mail in the comments section and we will get a hold of you. :)

GREAT IDEA - wear a Rock on Randy or Hope for Lisa shirt on Thursday at the Volcanoes game!!! Hope to see you all there.

Just got a text from Lenette - Randy ate really well today, up some lbs before starting chemo this evening (which always makes him NOT eat). They are all looking forward to Thursday's game :)

Home and feeling good

Randy got some visitors yesterday. That was very nice for him. Today he got to head home. He is feeling much better. I believe it will be out of the hospital until Monday.

Remember last day to buy Volcanoes Tickets for Thursday's game is TOMORROW!!!

Prayer and Make a Wish

Randy is getting some tests done and checking and comparing with results in a couple of weeks. Please be praying for the results. The chemo is hard on him, but they want it to be effective. It always puts him into a deep sleep for a few days, then he is back and up. That happened today --- he was talking and laughing and making jokes today. His dad, brother, and sister were able to come up to day for a quick visit. Rachel got to stay and play games with Lisa. She is such a sweetie and I am sure she is cheering everyone up. Randy was joking around with the Make a Wish people today, which makes me smile to hear that. I can't wait until we find out what he gets to do, but that will be months down the road. So exciting! Still hoping to make it to the Volcanoes game next week. Keep Rockin' Randy!!!

In the hospital again

Randy had a great weekend with family and friends celebrating the 4th of July. It was very nice to have a whole week at home. He is back up at the hospital getting his meds. Lenette was treated with a special Olive Garden lunch for the cancer patients parents. What a treat - not hospital food. Randy is very tired and sleeping most of the time. She said he should bounce back after tonight when we gets a different type of medication. He will probably be there until Thursday or Friday. Then the same stuff happens again next week. He will have to get a pass to get out of the hospital for NEXT THURSDAY's VOLCANOES GAME!!! Please pray that Randy and Lisa both feel good enough to go to the game and throw the first pitches. It will be GREAT to see them both out there.

Long time, no post

I have been out of town and only had a little contact with Randy. He did have to go into the hospital because of a fever, but has been our for a few days. I hope to get a better update today. Hope you all have your Volcanoes tickets for July 16th!
