My dream

About 3 years ago Robyn (our daughter) came up to me and said "Dad, we have to go to World Cup. It's in South Africa". I contemplated this for a micro-second and said "sure".

Just over 2 1/2 years ago I received my lung cancer diagnosis. At that time, I honestly and truly did not know what lay ahead for me. Back then it became a dream for me to go to World Cup. Well that dream came true. I'm sitting here in Zurich on my way to South Africa for World Cup 2010. And yes, Robyn is sitting right next to me.

Sadly, I just found out that a co-worker who was diagnosed with lung cancer just a short while ago has passed away. You just don’t know what you are going to be dealt in life’s game of cards. So I stay with the mantra of each day is special and……………

Carpe Diem.

World Cup 2010

It's been a while but I have finally gotten off my lazy arse to update the blog. Why, you ask? Because tomorrow (Tuesday June 24th) Robyn and I leave for the soccer World Cup in South Africa.

I'm having a treatment today (Bio 7 Round 1). I'm sure everything will go well. I'm feeling pretty good and look fine so things internally, better be good!!!

This picture was taken on September 7th, 2007. It's the new construction site of Green Point stadium in Cape Town. The now shot is below it.


Carpe Diem.
