My 19-year-old grandson started 9 weeks of chemo this week.

He was diagnosed with testicular cancer a few weeks ago. He had to have one testicle surgically removed. After removal his makers were still going up and they discovered that it had metastasized to a lymph node, necessitating the chemo.

Please keep him in your thoughts and prayers!

For those of you that attended the Madrid NY GOTO, Lukas was the volunteer EMT that was around the grounds on his golf cart. Since his early teens, he has been driving my AC tractors in local parades.

An update on his treatment. One week of chemo done. He has a little nausea and seems to tire easily, but otherwise doing well.

His chemo regime is:

weeks 1, 4 and 7 - five daily treatments, Monday through Friday.

weeks 2. 3. 5, 6, 8 and 9 - one treatment per week.

Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers. It is appreciated more than you will ever know!!!

Just a follow up note.

We received some good news this week after the end of week 5 (of 9 weeks) of chemo. His "tumor markers have dropped from 118.5 on August 19 to 17.4 on September 9 (normal is 0, but less than 8 is acceptable).

Thanks for all the thoughts and prayers! We are (cautiously) optimistic!!!
