Many of you know about Cody Strout and his battle 4 yrs ago with a brain tumor....his brave nature and ability to put a smile on your face even when he wasn't feeling so great from Chemo treatments.

He has been doing great living as a normal 15 yr old boy in IL. Until yesterday, when they went in for his 1 yr recheck MRI.....the tumor is BACK and the same size as before. His mom Shell was so nervous about this long gap between check-ups, but said it is a good thing cause he is doing so amazing. He is trying to stay positive and say lets get this going and fight it, so I can get back to my life. His parents, as any parent would be, are beside themselves with worry. I reach out for prayers and thoughts for him and his family while they once again endure the evils of cancer. He will be having surgery on Monday and I will be keeping you updated as I get information. Many of you stepped up and put a smile on his face when we all 1st learned about him. I ask you now for lots of positive thoughts and prayers. Anything written here I will forward on to the family so they can once again feel the compassion our sport has....

He is an amazing young man with a spirit that most of us strive our whole life for. I know he will beat this.

Hang in there Cody . My good friend was in the exact same situation and after a second operation they were able to get like 98 % of the tumor and were able to radiate the last 2 percent that was on his acuall core. It has been 2 years since his second surgery and his tumor has not grown back at all and he is able to live a normal life , You can beat this !! Smile

He is out of surgery....it was a 5 hr process. They are hoping they got all the tumor...will know more after the scans tomorrow...it is the exact same type as the last one...so he has a long course of chemo ahead of him again. But knowing Cody he will take it and still be smiling.!!! Thank you all for your thoughts and prayers...please keep them up as he still has a long road ahead.

THE TUMOR IS GONE!!!!!!!
They were able to remove all of the tumor from Cody's brain. :-) I am sooo happy right now. (almost in tears) He should be taken out of ICU by the end of tonight. He is doing well and will start Chemo treatments in a few weeks. I love when you see the power of prayer and people coming together fora gerater good! :-)
