A good day in our lives today. The wife is gaining strength and getting as sassy as she used to be, which is good. We had about $1500 worth of cement blocks and plywood delivered this afternoon in what we hope is the last big push toward finishing the house. We are inching closer and closer to the...

Live Tonight!
Hopefully, this is the last of the year's cold fronts running across northern Florida. We had a low temp of 39 last night with one more night of about the same weather. We stayed warm in our bedroom because we had sealed that room up as tight as we could. The rest of the house is drafty, with all... Sign in to see full entry.

Good morning. Things are settling down here, and life is returning to normal - or as normal as our lives will ever be. I've always been a "fly by the seat of my pants" kinda guy, and my wife seems to be adopting the philosophy as well. We do some scheduled activities, but things seem to lead us to...

Great News!
We just got a call from the University of Michigan. Based on the information they have been given to date and all of the lab work and everything else that has been done so far, they believe Lisa does NOT have a cancer running in her body. They want her to continue to follow up with abdominal... Sign in to see full entry.

My wife had a slew of testing procedures done yesterday (Saturday), and while preliminary testing looks good, we won't get *official* results until late tomorrow afternoon. If and when they clear her, I will return to this site more often than I have been in the last three or four weeks. Lisa is... Sign in to see full entry.

We got a call from the University of Michigan late yesterday afternoon with some good news. They identified the cancer chemical being detected as CA 125, or the signal ovarian cancer emits. Normally, that would be bad news, but Lisa had a complete hysterectomy in 2014/2015, which means her having... Sign in to see full entry.

A quick note before we go to bed. Lisa had a good day. We walked the three blocks to the corner store and grabbed an ice cream cone and walked back with no problems. That wasn't possible a few days ago. Long story short, Lisa is improving. Thank you. V Sign in to see full entry.
Lisa is improving as they have cut down on some of the meds they gave her. Meds are like that. I'm still keeping her quiet, but she is up and moving without any issues. We are still waiting for a call from the University of Michigan hospital to tell us what they can figure out. For now, we are going... Sign in to see full entry.

Thinks Are Getting A Little Better
We still have no idea exactly what is going on, but Lisa is feeling better, and she sat outside with me today, making me feel a little better. I'm still trying to keep her quiet, but that isn't the easiest task in town. She has to get a blood draw three times a week, but we can use the lab on the... Sign in to see full entry.
