Today my surgeon called me to give me an update on the pathology of the cancer. Some of it was not necessarily good news. From all the scans and pre-operative scans, they were anticipating that it had not spread to any lymph nodes. When the pathologist examined the tissue, they found cancer in 14/19 lymph…
Growing up I would watch a lot of sports at my best friends house. Right now it is playoff hockey and it is game 7 between Toronto and Montreal. Watching the game right now, I realize that I miss watching sports with friends. Prior to Covid when I was at the University we would invite…
I was randomly watching videos today on YouTube and browsing reddit. One of the posts on reddit asked a question on why be nice to others when it is not reciprocated. It is an interesting question and something that made me think. If you are being nice for recognition, are you doing it for the…
I did not realize that I did not hit publish on some of the posts. I have been tired the last couple of evenings and did not want to be on my computer. A couple of nights ago I removed all of the strips on my stomach. Things are getting much easier now and I…

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…
I am a little disappointed that I could not hit my discharge date of Friday. I am not surprised as I was in no condition to be discharged yet. Everyday gets easier now and I will be out today or tomorrow barring some thing weird happening. I walk more and more everyday. I have a…
