Start date change

Hi everyone,
The treatment looks like a February 7, 2005 start, we needed to get our ducks lined up a little different. I talked to Dr. Greeno's nurse today and we need one more appointment to come together and we will have our plan A. I always work better when I have a plan, and working for the railroad I realize that we may have to move to a different plan and that is why there are 26 letters in the alphabet. Also, we noticed that we are to be at the clinic Monday-Friday for treatment of one sort or another, we just didn't read our original treatment plan correctly, the Tuesday and Thursdays will be quick appointments, but none the less a drive up and back from Minneapolis. We will be able to drive that with our eyes closed, like some of the drivers do already.

We started getting Net Flixs again, my first movie revue, Van Helsing - "what is this movie about", more revues later.

Snow warnings today, all our local weather people are so excited, do you think they lock these people up at night. My report would be short and sweet, if you work inside you may have a tough time getting there, if you work outside, your day is going be bad. Either way have as good a day as possible, end of report.

Keep the notes coming, I'm reading as fast as I can.
Scott

Hello,

I am glad to hear you are getting all your plans in order, I know that make you feel better.
as for the Movie "Van Helsing" it is different but I rated it around a "5" I liked the guy who also was in Xmen "wolfman" I think that is who he was.

Glad to hear you can eat again.. and sleeping alittle bit more.

Stay warm and rest

Love you lots

Julie
 
GLAD TO HEAR THAT YOU ARE SLEEPING IF ONLY IN YOUR CHAIR SLEEP IS GOOD .

BUT THE MOVIE I ROBOTS WITH WILL SMITH HE SAYS THAT THE ROBOTS SCARE HIM SO HE GAVE IT A THUMBS DOWN.

TAKE CARE KEEP WARM AND REMEMBER THAT WE ALL LOVE YOU. SISTER SUE AND FAMILY.
 
Hey Scott,

Isn't netflix great? We get that here and you just can't beat the possiblity of about 12 New Releases a month for $18. I saw Hollywood Video had a special last week 4 movies for $20. Have you seen Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind? Very weird movie, you'll be talking about it for days to come. Enjoy your movie, we're looking forward to getting "Friday Night Lights" :)

Love ya!
Amber Ryan and Abigail
 
Scott---You sound pretty feisty which is good. It means you are feeling much better.

All you need for those daily trips is a tape of "On the Road Again". I'm sure it will perk you up. I had to go up to Cody for 6 weeks of radiation and after the 2nd day it was just part of the daily routine. Take care. Toots
 
Hi Scott and Roxie, I was so sorry to hear about your
illness, but glad to hear you are in good hands with doctors and treatment plans. You can be sure there are many prayers for you at the Karker household!!!

We were going to drive to the Cities tonight to visit Scott Knight, so of course there is a snowstorm. Will make it a day trip tomorrow instead. Take care and stay warm - Mary
 
Scott,
Glad to hear that you are sleeping better and watching movies. Sounds like what I've been doing for the last week. Give 'eh hell when you start the chemo. I know it won't be easy but when it's done and you are cancer-free, it'll be worth the effort.
I hate that you have to go through this. Dont' look at the "big picture," just look at every day and what you can do...sometimes minute to minute is a great goal. I'm looking forward to your movie reviews. Our kids made us suffer thorough Napolean Dyamite over the holidays. Try to avoid that one. I think you need to be 14 years old to think it is funny.
I'm off of work for a few weeks during semester break but am doing a long term sub for new mother starting March 1. I'll be checking in with you to make sure that you are following doctors orders.
Keep the faith...
Prayers,
Sally (just up the road in Hudson)
 
Hi Scott, I'll be looking forward to your weekly movie reviews. Let me know your movie schedule, I'll come over and we can be like Ebert & Roeper. Not sure which one of us should be which? ;-)
I'll be sure to stop by on Saturday to check on you and your wonderful nurse. Let me know if I can bring you anything. Love, Linda
 
Scott & Roxie:

We’re thinking about you and saying lots of prayers . . . Reading your blogs, I find I really miss Wisconsin. No one in Virginia knows Brett Farve’s birthday is Oct. 10th –same as mine. No one here understands snow. They predicted 5 to 9 inches over the weekend and everyone thought they’d be snowbound for a week. The grocery stores were stripped of milk and bread and celery (celery???). Thank God they spared the cheese. Mike and I figured no one would be on the Beltway or in the stores for once on a Saturday so we went to Home Expo. Just us and Dick Gephardt -- snow doesn’t scare him either.

We’ll keep praying for you as you go through this phase, Scott. Keep up the good attitude and get better! Jean & Mike Adair
