We had a very busy Easter, with 3 Easter egg hunts and 2 dinners, and lots of great presents! While we were at Ben's parents Easter party we finally got a copy of this picture disc that was taken at the end of June. In June 2007 we found out Ben's dad Jon has terminal cancer. Luann (Ben's mom) decided we better have family pictures taken before he started chemotherapy. He has since had 2 major surgeries and multiple rounds of chemo. Jon had a miracle surgery at the Huntsman Cancer center that removed all visible cancer. ( His original tumor was the size of a small football that was intertwined with his spleen, colon and major blood vessels.) A few weeks later they told us he was still microscopically full of cancer and had him start chemo again. We found out a couple weeks ago he now has a golf ball size tumor in his liver. The prognosis is not good. We enjoy all the time we get with him and he is trying really hard to keep his spirits up and play with the grand kids as much as possible!!
