I like it.

I also posted in my hat thread, but I wanted it on the record here as well, seeing as how younger daughter will one day go through this thread and organize my posts into something coherent.

These days, I am always looking for quality family time, so this Friday, it's family hat day!
The daughters and my wife seem excited.

Here is mine:



a hat like that deserves a rig like this.




okay the first one might be too much, maybe this one


or this one is pretty cool

I lost ground everywhere, the tumors are spreading and growing.

I do appreciate everyone praying for me and hoping for the best.

There are still some medication options, but I am shell shocked at the moment and it is tough for me to want to try other drugs given their side affects and my quality of life.

To be honest, my quality of life is very poor and though I have tried to remain hopeful and optimistic, it's just is not in the cards.

I have felt myself slipping away the past few months despite the treatment, but I was holding out hope that the way I feel physically, that it was the side effects of the meds.
However, apparently it is twofold, the meds make me feel poorly and the cancer is too.

I have some decisions to make.
I was given six months to live without treatment in February when I started treatment.
Since the medication is not working, and given that 3 months have gone by, well, you can see where I am going here.
I may not make it past this summer.


^^ That was posted one year ago, yesterday - 5/23/16 (page 37).

You're now on your way to making through not one, but two Summers. How 'bout that!

That is true.
I was just coming off a medication that was supposed to perhaps add years to my life but didn't work.
Then we went to the last medication on the list which is a relatively short term drug.
I just can't seem to die on schedule... yet.
Ha!

Looks like the baby is coming.
I just dropped youngest daughter at the hospital.

I am back home now to get a little rest and wait for another call.

Her sister is with her.

Well, a little prayer for smooth as possible delivery, gramps!

And a great blessing for you and your family this day, that that you should see this. Smile

Congratulations grandpa!




"I've spoken of the shining city all my political life, but I don't know if I ever quite communicated what I saw when I said it. But in my mind it was a tall proud city built on rocks stronger than oceans, wind-swept, God-blessed, and teeming with people of all kinds living in harmony and peace, a city with free ports that hummed with commerce and creativity, and if there had to be city walls, the walls had doors and the doors were open to anyone with the will and the heart to get here." -- Ronald Reagan, Farewell Address, Jan. 11, 1989
