A lot of you know that my dad has undergone nearly two years of cancer surgeries and treatments. In January he was told that the cancer had spread to his lungs and the outlook was not good.

We've spent the last eight months preparing our families for what looked like would be an awful end of the year, possibly our first Christmas without my father.

At Internext in Miami, I was very depressed that my six year old son, while visiting his grandfather, witnessed a very emotional scene and started asking about death for the very first time.

I just got this in my email this morning from my mother:

Just wanted to let you know what we found out about Chuck's CT scan. The Doctor called him this morning and said he had good news. There is no sign of any cancer, and what they thought was cancer was just scar tissue. He said the radiation treatments must have done what it was supposed to do. The growth has not come back and there is no sign of any more cancer. The Doctor said he would do another CT scan in November and every three months for a year and if it doesn't come back in a year, he would probably be all right. I don't believe much in prayer but something must have helped. He was happier today than I have seen him is quite awhile.

I want to publicly thank everyone who offered their support and prayers during the last year, and especially my crew and everyone at Internext that helped me get through a very tough few days. It means a lot to me to know I have friends who care.
