Not that it's a shock cause I have been losing my hair since I was 16...thanks Dad. Today, I woke up to find that half my hair was on my pillow and no longer on my head! I was expecting it to go last week and it didn't. I started to think "Maybe it won't fall out after all"...WRONG! Jess and I started pulling out chunks which was actually quite fun. I decided to shave it bald and scrub out the rest in the shower. Believe it or not, I have wanted to be bald since college when I got a "wild hair" up my rear to "bic" my head. Which was right after I dyed it black...(no idea what I was thinking, someone probably forced me to drink beer the night before because I never willingly drank beer in college cause that was illegal...its true Mom :)
Just thought I would let everyone know that I am doing well. Yard work yesterday and Cardinals/Cubs game tonight. Pastor Schlie...Miracles do happen...I hope the Cubbies don't use there's up tonight.
The guys at work chipped in and got me a sweet Harley Davidson picnic bag to put on my motorcycle when I go riding. They also filled it with a bunch of healthy food, like Snickers, Twinkies, nuts, and Rice Krispie Treats. All the things a good cop keeps on his diet. :)
Next week is my 2nd long week, one week closer to the end. I want to thank everyone for your thoughts, prayers, cards, and meals. To those who I don't know but you know my parents...YOU ARE ALL AWESOME PEOPLE! It is because of you that my parents are being strong. I pray for you all daily.
Like I have said before, the power of prayer is amazing. Thankyou has never meant so much to me and my family and I hope you all know that. Until next week...
Godspeed-Schwank

Hey Stranger,
I heard about the news in church back in April. I was (am) very sad to hear that you are having to go through all of this. My father-in-law has battled cancer as well. It was certianly not fun, but he pulled through it have has been cancer free for the past 7 months!!! I am keeping you in my prayers and wish nothing but the best for you.
Best,
