I had planned on making it to the fall picnic, but I will be recovering from
prostrate surgery. A full body bone scan has confirmed that the cancer has
not spread to the bones. We can not be sure that it is all contained within
the prostrate until surgery, but were told that there is a 93% chance that
it is.is I am opting for surgery as the method of treatment in place of
radiation. Surgery is scheduled for Monday, September 24.  I will be the
hospital for 3-4 days followed by light activity for about a month. So the
fall Picnic on September 29 is a no go for me. Hope to see everyone at the
Christmas gathering.

Looks like a great turnout and there is still a week before the picnic.
 
Currently there are 85 adults and 22 kids.   In case you can't add that is
107 individuals.
 
Still wheelchair bound, can't walk.  Cast was taken off today to discover
that I am highly allergic to something in the cast material.  My leg looks
like an extreme case of poison ivy.  Matt say times 10 though.
 
So according to that doctor he wants to do surgery and lay me up for about a
year.  Doesn't sound like fun.  Currently nothing can be done until my leg
clears up.  So I am going to seek a second opinion before deciding on
surgery.  Doesn't look like I will be caching anytime soon.  
 
We will do our best to keep our caches in shape, so please be patient if you
find any that need repair, etc.  Since Matt is in school full time and
studies on the weekend.  
 
Keep on Caching,
Jen & Matt
