I'm in the Blogger World

Thanks to Siobhan and Daimhin, I am now a blogger. I'm not sure that I have anything to report that isn't in Doug or Scott's blog, but I'll try to keep you posted on my activities.

I am ready for the big day, so bring it on. I have a neighbour who has been diagnosed with stomach cancer. I was pretty shocked when he told me and it brought a lot of memories rushing back. His wife doesn't drive so I have offered to take him to and from the hospital for his procedures. Not only is there a tumor on the top of the stomach but 2 lymph nodes in the esophagus are infected plus a dreaded tumor behind the pancreas. He can't eat so they are putting a stint in to clear a path for the food. The doctors have said 2 months to 2 years depending on how the chemo reacts. It is not good, but his attitude to great.

I have joined a 'bitch and stitch' group associated with Newcomers and tomorrow I'm off to lunch with the group. I guess we'll just be bitching tomorrow.

Hope all is well with all of you in cyberspace, until next time.
