Hey Casey, we’re all thinking of you over here. Thought you might like to hear about a Tibro clean-up outing we did today.
Remember the green arrows? This time we had pink ones complete with about 15 x 12mm SS truebolts. People were up in arms at the bolting this iconic climb, so we dragged a portable generator up Caves Route, chopped the lot with an angle grinder, and puttied up the holes. I reckon the perpetrator is going to be a bit bemused when he gets back to fit the rest of the hardware!
We had an awesome couple of weeks at Kalymnos in Greece. You can check out our video on line here http://vimeo.com/2312042
Casey,
Aunt Dixie here, I have been catching up with you via your blogs. I am so proud of you. You have a great group of friends, that makes you rich beyond measure.
Hope you had a great Christmas!
Ours was quiet but very relaxing after we got home safe.
Started out in Madison Wisconsin, on Christmas Eve. Lek had a round of Chemo. The 5th round and he is scheduled for 6, so he is almost finished.
The roads were so bad that we went in on the 23rd and stayed the night, so we could be at the VA Hospital by 8:30 am. We went to Mark’s house Christmas day, had roast he prepared in the crock pot. Opened presents, Watched Kung Fu Panda, came home and crashed. Thank God for family. Ang and Mark have made this Christmas easy for me.
Let me know if there is anything we can do to make your fight easier. We have been praying since your Dad told us about your Cancer, and we will continue till you are cancer free.
Dear Casey, you do not know me, but I’m Dixie and Leks neighbor. You are in my prayers. You sound like an amazing young man with a wonderful support system. I do believe in answered prayers. I will continue to pray for you and the cause. Your Aunt Dixie and Lek are great people too. Take care.
I don’t expect you’d remember me but we met on a couple of occasions I’m a friend of Marcy’s. Just want you to know I’m sending out the positive vibes your way and will be pulling for you. You’ve got good friends who all are pushing the cosmos in your direction. Be encouraged by all those that believe in you. Scott
Hi-
I’m a 31 year old climber from Boulder who was also diagnosed with cancer this last fall (stomach with some spread to the colon). Fortunately my insurance has been covering most of the chemo and other costs. I couldn’t imagine having to deal with the financial hassle on top of the chemo effects, not to mention the shock of the diagnosis itself. Just wanted to send some positive vibes your way from one climber to another. If you feel like chatting with someone in a similar situation feel free to email me at Evan.Sloane@colorado.edu. I can recommend some good climbing literature for those crap chemo days. Stay strong.

We moved across the street from the Kelsos back in 1985. Watched all three children grow up. Heard Monica call for Casey many times, sometimes calling him Casey John…. We knew he was in trouble then. Ha! But one day we saw Casey outside, I think he eight or nine years old, can’t remember. He was “attempting” to ride a bike. Struggling to keep bike from falling over, plus going down hill was a major task at that time. But then when he tried to wave at Corky and me……… we thought for sure he was going down. I remember saying to Cork…… “he better stay off bikes.” Was I ever wrong. Casey, we love you!! You and your family our in our prayers. We think of you every day, and know things will work out for you.
Case,
Eugene visited this weekend from SLC, Utah. We were reminiscing about the ski trip to The Canyons a few years back - thanks to your ingenuity. I think about you often, and I will support the fight.

Hey you,
I’ve been traveling since Christmas and was in a small, tiny mountain town today that specializes in bike tours in the summer…the really long and difficult rides; I thought of you. It was so nice to see you in at Four Peaks before Christmas, let me know when you’re back in Phoenix.
I hope you’re feeling well.

Hi Casey; my 25 yr. old daughter has LMS of the stomach. After 9 months of gem/tax and radiation, she has been NED for almost 2 years. Though we never can breath easy, we keep a positive outlook on life. If it wasn’t for the support of community, family, friends AND many strangers, we could not have done it. I will make a donation shortly. Every little bit helps…HANG IN THERE and I will keep you in my thoughts. patti
Just wanted to let you know that you are in my thoughts and prayers. Your Aunt Diane and Uncle John along with Kellan and Patrick are keeping me updated. Stay strong and know that my family here in Phoenix is sending prayers your way.
I got a mail from Marcy explaining what you’re going through. I just wanted to write and say you’re in my thoughts. Keep your chin up dude and keep fighting.
Hey Casey,
I don’t know if you remember me. We worked together at Dick’s Sporting Goods forever ago.Actually it was right after high school. My mom’s cousin Lyman Woodman told her about you. I just wanted to let you know that you are in our thoughts and prayers. I hope you are felling well!
Take Care

I just had the pleasure of meeting you today at the Spin4Casey event at the Coyotes Club in Tolleson. I had so much fun and I have to say you have a wonderful smile!! You light up the room.
Hope to see you again very soon.
Gianna (New Luna Chix Phoenix Team).
I have not talked to you in a while and I heard what was going on. You always treated me with respect as a person and as a friend and I appreciate that. You are a role model for everyone to shape them selves after. You have always gone beyond the norm when it comes to pushing life to the extreme. Most people never even take the first step to experience what life has to offer. Never quit, never give up, the good parts of life always seem to surprise us when we are not expecting it! You are in my thoughts and in my prayers.
PS, If Armstrong can do it……. You know the rest………..
Just wanted to stop in here and say hi. I know that you are staying strong and will beat this. Miss hanging with you and Fritz down in Az, whether it was at the apt or on the trail. Looking forward to climbing Camelback with you guys again so he can explain his crazy theories about gas. Let me know when you’re going to be in Phoenix again. You are in my prayers bud.
Solange told me what was going on, and I stumbled across this site while searching for the Dawn to Dusk web site. I hope things are continuing to go well with the treatment, and know that I’m sending positive thoughts and good vibes your way!
Thought I’d pop in to say hi and that me and others are hoping things are going well for you. Your name comes up in conversation around the gym regularly and all are keeping tuned in to your progress reports. Take care and keep in touch!
PS - David Dumins and I went out to Queen Creek this weekend and got rained out! How often does THAT happen here? Not too often. We hiked down to Atlantis in the rain, hoping that the east-facing wall would be dry, though to no avail. We had climbed up over the waterway’s concrete pour over and walked along the bed there that is sided with a concrete support wall. Ended up having to dodge bowling ball sized rocks that were barrelling down the slope and over that retaining wall because of the rain! Reminded me of an old video game - pitfall! Anyway - still had fun.
I’m so sorry to hear of your dx. You don’t know me, I’m a fellow LMSr, dx’d with stage IIb retroperitoneal lms in Oct ‘07. Still alive and kicking, and plan to be for a long time.
Anyhow, you’ve gotta fight your insurance company. The pulled this crap with me too. Your life is a numbers game to them. They deny, deny, deny, and hope that you won’t fight it. Thank God I’m stubborn, ,because I finally got them to pay for my surgery at a Sarcoma Center (as opposed to with a vascular surgeon who had seen this disease once in 35 years.)
I highly recommend getting on the LMS discussion group with yahoo: lmsarcoma@yahoogroups.com. You will find great information, and wonderful people who will support you. You paid your premiums, you’re not asking for a hand-out from them, just what you deserve.
It bites that we have to go through the stress of getting our treatment funded, on top of our diagnosis. But you seem like a fighter, judging from your site.
Please go on the group, and the very best of luck to you. You seem to have some awesome friends to help you through this.
Hey Caser, I can’t wait until you’re back on your feet, so I can embarass you on the golf course. Just kidding, but rest up, you’ll need it with all the hellraising we’re gonna do!
Hi Case,
How are you? I haven’t heard from you or seen anything posted on your progress. I hope all is well, and I send good vibes your way.
I miss you,
Jodie
I am so so happy that you are better!!!! You are a true inspiration. You have a lot to teach others about staying postive and keeping an open heart. You have so much compassion to give to others and are a blessing to this world!!! Its great to see you smile.
Thanks for being you.
Much love and many blessings,
Michelle Lindsey

You are in my thoughts and prayers Casey. Fight the good fight, never stop, never surrender for anyone or any reason.
Hi, good post. I have been wondering about this issue,so thanks for posting.
I heard from Aunt Dix about the Miracle that’s what Im calling It. You are always in my prayers.
Hey Caser, I can’t wait until you’re back on your feet, so I can embarass you on the golf course. Just kidding, but rest up, you’ll need it with all the hellraising we’re gonna do!
I have been looking looking around for this kind of information. Will you post some more in future? I’ll be grateful if you will.
Some of us even don’t realize the importance of this information. What a pity.
Hi Case,

Very nice post
Thank you for sharing
I had a desire to start my own firm, nevertheless I didn’t earn enough of cash to do that. Thank goodness my close mate said to take the home loans. Therefore I took the auto loan and realized my desire.
I would like to propose not to hold off until you earn big sum of money to order goods! You can get the loan or credit loan and feel comfortable
I like use viagra, but this no good in my life, so viagra no good.

After his press conference admitting his cheating, Tiger Woods began apologizing to the women with whom he had affairs. Twelve hours later they say he barely scratched the surface.
Really great entry to read on.. I am truly intrigued with this article. Looking forward for more info.
I wanted to thank you for this great read!! I added to my bookmarks, cheers
In related news, a caddy found a golf ball at the end of the fairway that he claimed belonged to Tiger Woods because it had a picture of his mistress on it. When questioned about it, Tiger looked at the ball with the picture and replied, “Yeah, I hit that.”
In related news, the PGA voted Tiger Woods Player of the Year .. sources are unsure whether they were actually referring to golf though!
