He's been getting radiation treatments for prostate cancer, as those who've followed along have known. He's been living in a motel room there for quite some many months, first treating a heart problem after his back surgery and then finding advanced prostate cancer.
A few weeks ago, to add to the fun, he found out he had kidney stones. One passed and as painful as it has been, it's a huge relief that one passed on through. Two more hanging around.
Other good news is that Ed completes his 42 prostate radiation treatments this coming Thursday. He will be headed to Los Cruces, NM to stay with friends while he tries to rebuild some strength.
Ed asks that I share that he's been so fatigued from the treatments that he literally comes home from the clinic and collapses for hours on end.
He's not been on line for a couple weeks and asks folks bear with him.
I have an address I can share where he will be receiving cards or letters of well wishes. Some asked for that here on another post regarding his condition:
5007 Chippewa Trail, Los Cruces, NM 88011
I know you all join me in continuing prayers for Ed's recovery and successful eradication of the cancer in his prostate with no further complications. He's prepared for the next round of pain with 2 more kidney stones to pass, but now that he knows what it is...he's ready for it!
One day soon, he'll get some energy back.
Benson, that computer is what linked him to ole high school chums and one of them is who is putting him up in Los Cruces. You never knew the extent of blessing you brought on his life when you drove the little box over to him, did ya?
Prayers for healing and strength and successful treatment of the cancer.
