Yesterday we had people at our house helping out the installation of our kitchen. They were here until close to 1am. Over the course of the last couple of months they have come after work and helped out with our renovations, sacrificing their free time during the weeknights and weekends to help us out. I…
I just got off the phone with my oncologist and everything happened as I had expected. The surgeon was not too keen to do surgery and I do not really blame him as we do not really know too much of where it is. What we do know that there was a tumour and that…

Things next week are going to be interesting. On thursday I find out what time my surgery is scheduled for next week. If things do not go well then I will be done fairly quickly and if things go well then I will be there for a much lengthier amount of time. I will be…
