The amount of support that we have received over the weekend has been surreal. Mel does not think that we deserve all of the love that we have received and she has made comments about how we need to pay this forward to everyone. I reminded her that people have wanted to help us out…
I had mentioned on Friday when I was speaking with the social worker while writing my legacy document that I got emotional at one point. Over the weekend, I have seen numerous posts from people I have interacted with over the years sharing positive things about me and my family, and it gave me a…
This morning I woke up to quite the surprise on how quickly the GoFundMe had spread. Mel wants to write a joint post outlining our appreciation for people. I have told her that I have written about things like that repeatedly, but tomorrow morning we will write a joint post thanking people for it. What…
In the last week I have been documenting a lot of what has been happening, mostly so I have a record and so I can come back and remember what occurred each day. I have missed writing about positive aspects with my writing being more clinical outlining everything. This is mostly due to the fact…

Cancer is quite expensive. Today I will have a nurse come and she is going to give me an injection. The purpose of the injection is to help out with my white blood cells so that they do not drop too much. If my lab work comes back with concerns then it delays my treatments…
Today is family day and we have been pretty lazy today. Mel slept in until close to 10:45am, where she just lounged in bed. We have not had a weekend like this in a while where she can sleep in. I did not sleep in and was up at 3am. It is awesome with the…
