On September 25, 2009, Rassie was diagnosed with Chronic Myelogenous Leukemia. His symptoms: Swollen Feet and bruising. We never exepected a diagnoses of Leukemia. The Doctors and we ourselves, are very optimistic about the treatments available. We know that we have a long road ahead of us and we hope that you will support us on our journey to recovery.

November

Things are going good for us. Rassie is doing well. We had an 'oops' with the worker's comp insurance and Rassie getting his checks but that worked itself out. It did take several phone calls butwe're good now!

Rassie started physical therapy back up this past Wedneaday. He said his therapist worked his butt off. Good for her. He hung in there just fine though. He's been doing his own therapy here at home with the treadmill, bike and his big rubber band thingy's.

This coming Tuesday Rassie has an appointment with the 3rd party Texas Worker's Comp doctor. For some reason they have picked a new doctor for him to see this time. This time they are supposed to be checking for maximum medical improvement and they want to label him as a certain % disabled. According to Dr. F at S&W Rassie should fully recover so I am hoping he does not gwt labelled as disabled. That is what the Zurich workers comp ins is wanting so they do not have to continue paying 100% and can push him off on disability.

Alright, time to get off here.

Good night & God Bless
