It has been a while since I posted, so quick health update -
Now that I am post-treatment, I only have to go up to Madison once every three months for MRI & Check-up. I had another MRI in early June and they continue to be clean! I am feeling great and am probably in the best shape that I have been in 20 years. Kim is good, business is good...Life is groovy.
This morning, I woke up early and while enjoying my coffee, I started thinking....
2 days ago (6/29/09) marked 18 months post surgery for me. Doesn't seem like a big anniversary or anything, but deep down it has always been something that I thought about.
Let me explain...A couple days after my surgery, the doctor from the floor and I had a conversation about my Tumor...not one of my main doctors, just one covering the floor at the hospital. I can't remember his name, but I will never forget what he said when I asked "How long do I have - really"?
His reply, "6-18 months at most, I recommend that you get your stuff in order" - I guess I kind of deserved that for asking such a dumb question don't ya think? :)
However, 18 months and 2 days is here and my stuff is still a mess. :)
18 months and 2 days later and I still wake up every morning and smile cause I have "one more day".
I hope you all have a beautiful & blessed day today...I know I will.

That gave me chills and I now have the biggest smile on my face Steve....Way to defy the odds.
Thanks for helping me start my day in the best possible way!

There was never a doubt in my mind that you would beat the odds they gave you that first week. Come hell or high water -- you'd have to prove them wrong just because!
Doing the happy dance here!
I think of you often and am SO glad you continue to beat the odds into oblivion!! Great way to start July, eh??
