A light at the end of the tunnel....
Sorry, it has been a while. I thought I would be able to keep this up so everyone is always updated on Josh. So he had his scan and everything is gone!!!! So no more cancer. Josh starts radiation on Friday and he will have 16 treatments. They originally thought it would be 20 but we will take the 16. The dr told us that radiation is like an insurance policy. So even though the cancer is gone we still need to make sure it really is. The only side affects Josh will have with this is fatigue, but not like with Chemo more like he wont want to go out and mow the lawn so he will be with us instead of sleeping. He will be a little tender around the area they are treating and will have a sore throat, but they do have medicine they can give him if it gets too bad. We will definately take that over what the Chemo did. Thanks again for all of your support and prayers. We wouldn't be able to make it through this without it!! I will try to post something after Josh starts radiation to tell you what it is all about.

Yay. Ü
Josh,
This is Mike Law, how's that for a blast from the past?
Quin Herrera forwarded this link to me. Sometimes news has the ability to knock you off your feet. That is how I felt reading about your condition. It is beyond comprehension what you must have felt when you received the diagnosis.
I am so sorry that you have been going through the pain and anguish this type of disease brings with it. If there is one thing I am certain of, it is that Josh Phifer will beat this.
Looks like you have a great family helping you along the way. Congrats on making it through treatment buddy. You'll be in our prayers.
