My mom had it pretty bad with the chemo treatment. I am glad he is still active with the treatments. I wish your family the best.

Here's to MANY more years of shooting enjoyment together.

All the best.

Gibson,
God bless, man.

PM me if you need anything. Seriously.

He was diagnosed at the end of Sept. last year. I believe he is on re-induction 2? Our doctor is Dr. Pui evidently he wrote the protocol being employed. Famous guy. I an unclear one the nomenclature, sorry. My wife keeps up with all of that. I fell apart at the beginning and have never really clearly gotten the stage names. She takes him back bi-weekly until August 4th. (Had to go bi-weekly because of the chemo drug he has to take, as he exhibited an allergic reaction to the other, that would have allowed for more time between visits. So, it 6 hours+ round trip twice a week. I usually stay and take care of the other three children we have.)

Hopefully we will shoot the LE6920 tomorrow. He has to hold it atop his shoulder due to his port. We only have to step to the side of our house and blaze away. I set up a little 'range' and we are country folk.

Mortality is a real wake-up call. I have been stabbed almost to death, looked down the wrong side of a barrel twice, and crawled out from under some big weights but NOTHING compares to the feeling of being utterly helpless to take make your son well. I could not go on if something happened to one of my children.

Thanks to everyone who wished us well!

We'll keep our powder dry and blast at the bull's eye!

Sounds like a tough kid who takes after dad.

Best wishes and prayers!

**Magic_Salad0892** · 07-02-11, 01:57

I hope your kid gets better, sooner, rather than later.

Prayers inbound as ****, man.

You can always PM members here if you need anything.

I seriously doubt those shots were luck though. You probably just don't want to admit he's a better shot than you.

Prayers sent. Keep his spirits up. Take him out everytime he feels up to it.

**BigDog** · 07-02-11, 03:58

Gibson, you have my prayers as well. I went thru this last year with my wife (stage 1 breast cancer, she's recovering fine), and currently with a good friend (kidney tumor). If there is anything I can do, please IM me.
