The Good News



Troy had his staples removed. 

He is healing well and happy to be able to comb his hear without fear of ripping one off!

And...

We found our Troy is cancer free. YAY!!!!

There were additional cancer cells in the part they removed from his head, however, the perimeters are clear.

He will continue getting checked every few months, but we are beyond relieved that he is well.

Thank you so much for your love and support. I cannot begin to express how grateful we are to all of you.

I know that this really turned out to be quite minor for us...but it didn't feel minor. And no matter how difficult this was...the kindness and love we have received can never be repaid.

Denise, Jeff had a similar scare a year or two ago and had to have some cancerous tissue removed from his neck. Even though we'd been told everything should be fine, it was still nerve wracking until we got the same "all's clear" news. I'm glad to know everything's okay. Yay!

Oh, and I forgot to mention that it's pretty sad that the only time Troy will let you get a good headshot of him is when it's for a blog post stating he's cancer-free.

Whatever it takes, I guess!

It's never minor when you are going through it. Glad you can look at it now and feel it was just a hiccup. I'm also very glad Troy is cancer free. That is wonderful news.

Glad to hear he's doing well. My dad is going to have surgery to remove a couple of small cancerous spots on his ear and arm.
