6/8/21, Officially cancer-Free!
There are no words to describe the sense of relief and happiness. So many people I want to thank who helped me get through this journey.
I wrote what will hopefully be my last blog as part of this journey:
WOW! What an amazing surprise from

Well, I did it. Bought a card I’ve wanted for 30 years. Super easy deal and I’m so stoked! This completes my Rushmore of cards for the year. Couldn’t be happier! 🤩
This is a first. Cont. Optic FOTL didn’t have ANY cards. There was no pack. Been shorted before but this is nuts.
@PaniniAmerica
can we resolve this? These weren’t exactly cheap.
One of my grail cards has been acquired. The Caitlin superfractor auto from Bowman U Best is now in the PC! Thank you to many of you who alerted me to this card being pulled. Worked out a deal and picked it up last night. I’m beyond excited!
OH MY GAWD! My mom and I were bored so I suggested let’s rip a box of Contenders. First pack! Burrow Clear Ticket /10. Unbelievable. Can’t wait to see this one!!! What a card. Thank you
@PaniniAmerica
If I could ask a favor from everyone today, send some positive vibes my way please. I don't want to get into why, please don't ask. Just think good thoughts, keep me in your thoughts and prayers. I appreciate it greatly.
I'm seeking out the Caitlin Clark Auto Super 1/1 from Bowman U Chrome🏀! First person that puts me in contact with who pulls this card I'll send them $200. If a deal gets done and I get the card I'll up to $500.
Not the card shop, not the breaker, the actual person who has it!
Tomorrow is the big day. I'm in good spirits & ready to go.
If I can ask for two things from each and every one of you
1) 🙏 and
#PositiveVibes
2) Picture me cancer free and in good health, and hold that image in your mind when you think of me.
Much ❤️ to you all

Hey Crew can you keep my kiddo in your 🙏 today? While I was inside an MRI this afternoon she wasn't feeling good and after a trip to the Dr. she's headed in for an ultrasound tonight. Possible appendicitis. Always tough to see your little ones not feel good.
Surgery went great. Kiddo is resting and will be overnight in the hospital. Incredible staff that took care of her and us, and still are. Not sure i'll be able to sleep, but she feels great and that gives me relief. Truly appreciate the prayers and messages, thank you everyone!
Longest I’ve ever had to wait for a redemption. In the end I’d say it was worth it. Finally got my DK Metcalf cracked ice contenders rookie ticket auto. The verdict is in, and this is one sick card.
Kiddo got the go-ahead and is headed to ED for surgery. Getting that appendix out early. Appreciate all the kind words and 🙏🏻. She is kicking butt as a patient and we’re trying our best to be strong. It’s routine, but it’s still surgery.
If you're the praying type or just want to send some positive vibes my way I would appreciate it greatly. I go in tomorrow morning for my quarterly scans.
🙏🤞for some good news in a few days.
New gal mojo! Wife and I opened a few loose Contenders boxes and she hits this massive Burrow Championship Ticket! Oh my!!! She was jumping I was fist pumping. Makes me excited to rip again!
No one said it would be easy. Setback during rehab means extra night at the hospital. Gonna keep trying to improve. Goal is to get back home tomorrow
#poitivevibes
We’ll have an update on Caring Bridge prob tonight. Looks like I’m getting discharged home from the hospital tomorrow. God is good!

Much ❤️ -M
GREAT NEWS! surgery was successful. Recovery going well. Getting discharged tonight! No overnight. Super happy about that. Time to find some dinner and get ready to sleep well tonight. Thank you for your messages, prayers and vibes!!!
Just opened the box of my life. Had to grab a Select (one of my favorite!) Herbert silver. Mahomes patch /10. Drake tie dye /25. Steve young patch auto /10 and the freaking case hit Herbert Zebra. Unreal! Still shaking. My dream card from that set.
Glorious day! Scans came back clear.
Stayed positive and hoped for the best. I can't describe how nerve racking this experience is and I have to do it all again in a few months. For now I'm going to celebrate. Appreciate all the kind words, prayers & thoughts. Thank you everyone
Scans are all done. Already got CT results back (crazy fast), and everything looks good. Can’t thank everyone enough for the prayers and DMs. Appreciate it everyone. You guys make going through a tough time a heck of a lot easier.
It’s time for my scans again. Always a little nerve racking. Next week will mark one year cancer free. If I can ask a small favor from you all for some
#positivevibes
they are all appreciated.
Scans are all done Crew. Results come Tuesday. If I could ask a small favor to send some positive vibes and think clear results I'd be forever grateful. 🙏

Teacher friends, or anyone that runs a kid's card club. I cleaned out my card closet and I have a bunch of these totally filled boxes I want to get out to help support your efforts! Each box has a mix of sports: 🏈⚾️🏀⚽️🏎️Star Wars and more. No cost to you. I'll pay for shipping.
Please welcome me in joining my brother Mark as the newest full time employee of Mikey B Cards. Looking forward to working with him to open up new services, continue to take great care of our Crew and help make the biz run more smooth. He’s good people, you’ll love him!
All scans came back clear! Can't even begin to describe the relief. It's incredibly stressful as you wait for results. Now, it's time to celebrate! I'll put something fun together for next week!

1 year to the day when I found out I had cancer. It’s amazing how the year has gone. Tons of hard work and rehab. Getting through setbacks. Now I’m back doing something I really enjoy. Appreciate all the support. It means a ton to me!
57 card sub I sent to SGC on 12/12 is on the way back, Not a single card lower than 9.5 and vast majority are 10s. $9 a card....why am I using PSA again ?

card! If you have a young one at your house that loves Caitlin as much as we do drop a comment below. We'll pick several at random and DM you to get your info!
Crew - please RT to spread the word!
Lots of great news from the Doctor’s appointment today but biggest bit is that I’m clear to put full weight on my left foot and I can with a regular shoe and not the boot! I’m so happy right now. Recovery has been tough but cleared a major obstacle today!
Great visit to the doctor today. Foot and arm are healing well and progress has been made. Taking it one step at a time and know there is a long way to go but these kind of positive interactions really do a ton to lift my spirits. Appreciate everyone still sending

Huge thank you to

for the custom, hand made Beat Cancer 1/1! Appreciate the nice note and I’ll be putting this into a one touch for the PC. Appreciate you both, thank you!
Tossed in some free packs to a break. Hit a MONSTER Cade/Luka dual auto and had to have some fun with it. For the record it did go to one of the owners. Lesson is, don’t break with 🤡🤡
Actual picture of me from a month ago. Lol. In all seriousness today is the big day. 43 years young. Definitely the hardest year, but that just means I’m in for a really great one this year!
Alrighty Crew. Heading in for surgery. Ally will post an update when everything is done later tonight.
Appreciate those thoughts, 🙏🏻 and

Could use some 🙏 and
#positivevibes
today Crew. Going in for my scans (CT/MRI) this early evening. Should have results a few days later and we're expecting good news, but always a little nerve-racking.
