Blog of Random Thoughts
It is interesting now after my adventure into the hospital more and more people are starting to find out that I had some health related issues. I do not really care if people share what is happening as they are telling former colleagues and people who ask how I am doing. This blog is also…
I am not a very emotional person and normally emotions do not impact me that much, but on Friday when I was randomly listening to songs, a song came on that made me appreciate my wife. The song was from Griffen & Slander – All you need to know (ft. Calle Lehman), and it is…
Yesterday on post-op day 4 I was discharged from the hospital. I met my doctor in the morning and he asked how I was doing and if I wanted to go home that day. I said yes that I could manage at home as there was very little pain and benefit from me staying at…
Today I spoke with the surgeon and the washing from last week is all clear with no signs of cancer there. The CT scans from a couple of weeks ago are normal as well, so we will proceed with the surgery. He is anticipating taking out 50 to 75% but he is going to leave…

I have had several phone calls over the last couple of days from the hospital and Doctor’s office as they try and schedule all of the appointments within the next two weeks. Everything is now happening quickly as I read articles and things about people being delayed surgeries and taking months to get in for…
