Well, it certainly has been too long since I updated this BLOG. Earl is recovering well from his revision surgery and is doing great with the IV antibiotics. He is feeling pretty good, except for a bit of a pull in his quadricep.
The Great News is that Earl took his first weigh-bearing steps today. He was so happy he cried. I wish I would have had my camera so that I could show all of you the joy on his face.
We did visit Dr. Wong (Earl's oncologist) yesterday, and at the time of the visit he wasn't sure what the next step will be. This infection has complicated the plan for follow-up treatment and he would like to confer with other Dr's, before deciding how best to continue Earl's treatment.
Earl has been a bit down lately and would love to hear from his friends. This battle is not over and we still need the support of you our family and friends. So please keep in touch.
Debbie & Earl
Read Earl's story and be inspired by a very young man, who against all odds became a man who will be remembered for years to come for the way in which he fought his cancer with courage and still managed to encourage others.
His Journey with Cancer
Congratulations to this years NHL Alumni Ace Bailey Award for Courage our man Earl!!!!!
Darby and I (along with 26 others) were there to accept the award for him. It was a grand event, but could never compare to the grandness of Heaven.
