Couple updates


Wanted to let you guys I got some great news and then have some really bad news

I am cancer free in my cardiac MRI and CT Scan last week... no signs, none! They're going to do an ablation on me in a month or two, but that is an incredibly minor procedure to fix PVCs (they jump way up after radiation last fall).

The really bad news is my father passed yesterday morning. We saw it coming for a few weeks; Alzheimer's knocked the stuffing out of him and he dropped from 180# to 140# in a couple months. My mother is handling it well and we are all at peace with it. He took a severe turn for the worse on Friday night and was gone a little over 48 hours later. The man that lay in his and mom's house the last couple days was only his body; he gave us time to say goodbye and earned his wings peacefully in his sleep early Monday morning. We were very fortunate that he never developed any of the more dramatic Alzheimer's symptoms. Even as his time grew small, his love for my mother did not.
