It has been a long time since the last blog entry. I apologize for that. We are ok. Mostly we are better than ok and we are busy. I have picked up the pencil again and am writing. Karen is sewing while I write and our evenings are quiet and busy. For myself, I have not learned how to balance the new things in my life and new entries on the blog have suffered.
One year ago tonight we were in Radisson. I was doing the bowel prep for the next day's surgery. That night was the last time I would have a naked, intact belly that doesn't leak whenever it feels like letting go. We have come a long way. I am able to do pretty much whatever I want to do. Only my laziness or reluctance, get in my way. I do choose to be more deliberate about what I let into my life now. Writing is one of the things I chose to have.
I want to take a moment and thank all of you who helped us on our journey. I know I have said thanks many times in the past but we can never be too grateful. We know how lucky we are. We know there are many others who need the same support and help we were so lucky to receive from all of you. We all have friends and family who are dealing with their own cancer journey and they all need our help.
Thanks again to all of you and as always...Peace and love to all of you.
Mike

I was wondering about the 1 year mark. I know that we were there but thought it was earlier in the month. Must be getting old, can't remember things like that anymore.
Am glad things are going well now and hope they stay that way. Keep in touch. We love you guys and keep you in our prayers!

So good to see a new post from you and to hear that you are too busy to post. That is a good sign! Just finished reading a blog post from a friend in town fighting metastatic lung cancer and she likened her oncology visits to Oz. Now she wears ruby red sparkly shoes to chemo. Mike, I'm glad you didn't wear the shoes. Hmmm..shaking that image out of my head.
We miss you! Wanted to get to Bemidji this summer but moved again instead. Have been blogging again if you're interested and we're heading to France next week to visit Hugo and fam! Love, Becca
