Zack and Heidi,

I choose to believe you will beat the time frame and be around for a long while. Nobody knows everything, I too am shocked and truely believe you will beats the odds, the chemo could really do the job, so whose to say. Your picture as a couple remains on my frig with all the grandchildrens pictures they have drawn,,its been there since last July. I printed it off a e-mail and left it there for Gene to see so he would remain positive. So be positive as you can with this news, you are in our hearts and in our prayers, lovingly,
Gene and Ginger

Zach,

My thoughts and prayers are with you and Heidi...I want you to know that last year in Aug. Angelo was given six months as well...in a little more than 2 weeks we will be at the 1 year mark!

The quadramet injection helped tremendously with bone pain, although it took the full 4 weeks to work, and radiation helped as well...He is up and about these days, eating well, reading, writing, and enjoying the kids...I want you to know that there is nothing better than proving the medical profession wrong...

Thank you for all the support you have given me and others on this site...I have full confidence that you will continue to inspire those you are in contact with....

Rosemary said it right -- we need you on this forum and will pray that everything is low grade, non-invasive and totally responsive to treatment. Hang in there, buddy.
