It seems a little strange to be reporting on myself but here goes.
A few weeks ago, my left leg began to swell....I attributed that to my age and forgot it. It kept on getting larger.
My daughter found out about it and made me go to the emergency room for a check up. They told me I had cellulitis, gave me a couple of prescriptions and sent me home.....still no relief from the swelling in my leg.
My daughter then had me come to Jackson, TN so she could take care of Dot while I went to the ER here. They also did an untra sound but included a CT scan. That's when the tumor on my prostate showed up.
I have been to a urologist here in Jackson last Thursday for a biopsy and received my first treatment at the same time. Of course it's cancer but hopefully the Eligard shot the doctor gave me will start to reduce the tumor and I'll get some relief from this leg.
Also, a full body bone scan was setup for this past Tuesday to see if the cancer had spread. I got the report a couple of hours ago......NO CANCER IN THE BONES!!!
Hopefully I'll be hanging around for a little while longer.
Keep on praying for me...

All_ScrappersDeath of a classmate--Johnny McGaugh, class of 61Posted by TerryWilliamson51 at 14:46, on Monday, August 23, 2010
From Billie Faye (McGaugh) Hillyard--of Arlington TN., class of 1958---I recently received an email from Billie Faye saying her brother Johnny McGaugh, of, Memphis, class of 61, passed away August 5, 2010. He went to the doctor with severe abdominal pain and all the tests that go with the digestive system were performed. Cancer was found in his lung, kidney and liver but nothing to warrant the pain he was having and no cancer symptoms. We found out he had many other problems going back to a heart attack and 2 heart surgeries 15 years ago. His illness was relatively short, but he suffered a lot in that short time. He complained little. All of his sisters, family, and friends will miss him. Thanks for sharing this as many will remember Johnny.---

I just got off the phone with a tearful Etta "Ware" McNutt. She told me that shortly after I talked to Terrell yesterday afternoon, his condition worsened. Terrell has apparently had a stroke and is bleeding out inside. Etta says it's just a matter of time now.
Etta and family are at his bedside now at Baptist East. Please keep them in your thoughts and prayers during this stressful time.
I'll update as soon as I get more information.
