No Dan, actually I have my own list of projects around the house from remodeling upstairs and downstairs, painting around windows, and getting electric in the garage. But not necessarily in that order...
Must be that OCD thing I have.
I have 24 of service and had planned on retiring this month anyway since I'll be turning the big 5-0 in a few days. As scary as it is I am looking forward to it. If these other health issues doesn't get in the way too much I got a few miles to make up this summer.
I learned today that this is not a benign tumor. This thing is showing very aggressive characteristics and very serious about spreading. The good news that a drug called Gleevec has control over these types of tumors and can cause them to shrink. Nothing promised but there is still hope. I go back after a few weeks of Gleevec and the Dr will determine if radiation is necessary at that point.
Today I started the paperwork to a new chapter in my life. I am about to join the "Retirement Group". Effective February 28, 2014 I will start my retirement years. It's not exactly what I expected to be doing starting out, but it's time to place all efforts on beating this cancer thing again. I am in limbo right now until we see what the chemo does and surgery can be done. Until then I plan to glorify my Lord and fight this terrible disease. So keep your eyes out for the "blondie" riding the Midnight for you may never know where she might show up at.
I will try to fit it into my schedule. July may not be good month due to other vacation plans for me. But whenever everyone else wants to. Right now since my surgery has been postponed to who knows when, I can't make plans too far out. But the "blonde" on the Midnight will ride again. LOL
You all can have six more weeks, but French Creek Freddie did not see his shadow today in West Virginia. And his rating is higher than the Puttsylvania's ground hog.
My doctor called me before I got home. He has already spoke with oncologist & surgeon. He advised the surgeon will be calling to set up meeting and schedule my surgery.
