Round Three on Monday

It has been a few weeks since I posted anything, but I wanted to keep everyone updated. First, it has been a great three weeks being home with my family. We enjoyed the Memorial Day weekend and the last day of school for our children as we celebrated with fireworks. I was able to speak at Woodridge High School's graduation at Blossom Music Center, and it went well, although I was emotional during my speech. I head back to Akron City Hospital on Monday (June 8) for round three of chemo. I will be in the hospital for five days, and will be able to come home on Saturday. The concern will be the week after coming home as my blood counts will bottom out, and I could end up back in the hospital with high fevers (much like round two). With the beautiful weather, I am looking forward to spending this weekend with my family before heading to the hospital on Monday. As always, I appreciate all the cards, emails, and prayers.

Best wishes,
Mic

Dear Mic, I came across your blog and had to let you know how much you touched our hearts at WHS graduation. You have been a inspiration to the kids. I know I speak for the class of 2009 and thier families when I say we are thinking of you and praying for your recovery. Stay strong. God Bless You. Becky, Rich and Alyssa Woodcock
