This time of year most of us look back and reflect on the year. Some don’t and that is OK. I view the last 12 months as fun, enlightening, and frustrating.
Fun because I had some family and friends that have have evolved into family be part of my life in a good way.
Frustrating because some family has chosen to step back into relatives by not actively involving themselves in my life. I recognize we all have busy lives but I initiate communication often and they respond, sometimes, but only in response to me.
I need to clarify that when I say me or my I mean my wife too.
My second book is in the research mode and going slowly, holidays possibly, more likely just lower energy on my part.
I might not have posted this but my Prostate Cancer came back in April/May and I am on medications to knock it down again, successfully so far. I have added two more doctors to my care team. An Oncologist and a urologist specializing in treating the side effects of those medicines. I was Cancer free for 16 months and will be on these meds until Feb 2020. As one choir member said: “seems like a roller coaster ride”. Yes it does.
My attitude is positive and I have no sign of disease. So all good!
I would really like to hear from Cancer patients and Care givers about their experience with Cancer. Some might help others, possibly me, with their odyssey with Cancer.
Merry Christmas and a very Happy New Year in 2020!
