More than two years ago, I asked for your prayers for my son, who was undergoing treatment for a malignant brain tumor. His treatment at the time, though physically brutal, was successful. However, Austin's cancer has returned, and he will be going back into radiation and chemo soon - he had surgery last week.
This is so hard - he pretty much missed Middle School with this, and now here goes High School. Pray for him to enjoy college...
We will very much appreciate all of your prayers. Thanks you.

The surgery was uneventful and quick, and they were able to start the stem cell harvest yesterday. That continues for a few days, and then he has five days of chemo, so it's back and forth to the hospital for a week or so. After that, the next phase and the schedule will kind of depend on how quickly he recovers from this round of chemo. We are thinking probably "the big one" will start sometime in March.
We did not really have a rooting interest in the Super Bowl, but had some friends over to watch the game and had a great time.
As always, I wish there were more updates to give you, but things don't change quickly, or change much from one day to the next. We continue to be humbled and grateful for all of your prayers and support.
