Update...

I can't believe it has been one year since Rob was diagnosed with Stage 2 Diffused Large B Cell NHL! Rob is feeling incredible and looks amazing! This summer has been much different than last...complete with camping, canoe trips, swimming, trips to the park and a lot of time just being together and enjoying Rob's good health and energy again.

It has been quite the journey and we still think about it often. Just the other day I was thinking about all that we have been through and how we have changed because of it. I was reminded that we are all given our crosses to carry and we are stronger when we accept the cross and carry it with determination and faith. Rob did just that - and because of his strength and his fight, we are all better people. I think we have all learned something from Rob! He has been a pillar of strength and faith through the entire journey. We have been blessed with some wonderful new friendships that were a result of this journey and given some incredible opportunities. We have grown closer and stronger in our relationships with our friends and family members. It is amazing how something so terrible can bring so much goodness. It is a lesson in life to see the good in all things, to treat each day like it is your last, to give your friends and family an extra hug and to say "I love you" every chance you get.

We were put on this earth to love each other and to support one another and that is just what all of you have done for us!

We will once again walk in The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society Light the Night Walk on October 17th (downtown Indy). We hope you will consider walking with us again this year. You can visit our webpage to join our team and/or make a contribution to The Leukemia and Lymphoma Society. We hope to have another great year of walking together...and best of all...this year Rob will walk with us - CANCER FREE! http://pages.lightthenight.org/in/Indianap09/smgrpg46220

Love and Thanks to all of you!!!
