Found a cell # for Ed. He answered!!!

He had an awesome time at ATAR. SEems he ran into a bunch of Gangers out there, too.

His presentation was an apparent overwhelming hit. No better medicine for the "Doc" than that!!! he was still on a high driving slowly from a stop over w/ Harry Elberg, to MO and then onto his recuperation location in NM.

Thank you Lord, that Ed could go and be so well and warmly received! May his health continue to improve sooner than later.

Prayers sent for a quick and full recovery....Dr. Ashby is one of the nicest people that I have ever met....years ago he sat and talked to my wife and myself for a long time in a hotel lobby in NC....down to earth and a very warm and friendly man....God's speed to a quick recovery Sir......

[Doc Nock]

he's meandering his way back to Los Cruces, NM to a friend from HS who's putting him up till he heals better from the radiation treatments.  Says something about this man's life-long behavior to still have HS friends like that, eh?

I think he said he has a Doc's appt on Thurs, 20th, for a post-treatment follow up. Hopefully, whatever they do shows marked improvement and that the cancer is abated or gone entirely.

By way of his humor, he was so tickled his presentation was well received. Then folks dropped by AK Bowhunting where he hung most of the time and were asking Ashby for his autograph... He told me that he commented to them "IF you good folks want MY autograph, you gotta get a life!"  

Always the humble man who sees nothing more in himself that a man with questions he wants to answer...

Hopefully, he can get back on track and on the web this late week and catch us up personally.

Ed, Keep the Son in your eyes!

Juan,

Amazing how he reconnected with HS friends through the internet while in TX and they invited him to recouperate there with one of them in Las Crueces...

Ed's got his treatment follow-up today.  Prayers that the news is great and he's traveled home well.

[BenBow]

Amen on a great report. God's best to Ed today & every day.

[Doc Nock]

Just got to chat with Doc Ashby tonite. He's doing well. Got a good report from his follow -up exam for the prostate cancer treatment. He's also feeling some of his energy starting to return and is able to navigate a bit better and not so tired. He's pleased with the progress.

I'm sure he'll drift on by here when he can and update us all personally.

Doc, Keep the Son in your eyes!

[BenBow]

Sweet! Praise God and glad for you Ed

[Dr. Ed Ashby]

First, let me thank each of you for your prayers and well wishes. I can not begin tell you how much they mean.

As Dave mentioned above, all seems on track so far. I'm starting to get some energy back, but perhaps as much or as fast as I thought. The drive over and back for yesterday's follow-up took the better part of a day ... and I slept 11 straight hours last night! Must have been a tad more fatigued that I though I was.

Nonetheless, I'm so happy to be feeling as well as I do. Finally there is enough 'get up and go' to begin doing a few simple exercises again. With God's help I get back to bush in the not so distant future.

My next F/U is with the Radiologist on 16 Feb. Hope that goes as well as yesterday's check up.

May God bless you each and every one,
Ed

Praise God! Glad to see you up and going again. Praying for another good report.
