From better to bad to worse to wtf?

They say in Colorado if you want the diagnosis about a loved one to change, just wait 12 hours..

Something like that?

The issues moth run law is going through after the hysterectomy aren't related to the procedure. They finally did a cat scan and found lesions and tumors in her brain. Inoperable of course, since why would we have anything easy in our lives.

Some steroids reduced the swelling, so she is almost back to normal and able to make decisions for herself so the family doesn't have to. If all remains stable they will start targeted radiation and hopefully put the cancer into remission for 6 months, a year, or who knows. She is able to eat and drink for the first time in almost a month, so that's refreshing, nobody likes living on an I.V.

The drama level is low for once, and if it wasn't for my allergies exploding I would actually have gotten some sleep. I have a bunch of fall and winter pictures to get off the camera and post, it was a beautiful weekend at the cabin until we had to bail out to the hospital again. It was a good anniversary and ATV riding day with friends (in a blizzard, with nasty wind and windchill).

Remember, if it's not exciting it wouldn't be in my life.

Rock is feeling a little left out so we are giving him walks, hikes and peanut butter spoons.

    1. Thanks, things are looking better, but we are all coming to terms with long term. Who knows what long term really means, but that's why I like epic adventures, you never know when it's going to be over.

    It never stops. You just have to keep struggling and handling things. At least you have a nice place out there in the mountains to restore your "wa" when you can get away.
