Chemo 7 (Round 8)

Well, that crept up fast !

My Toronto visit

                                  Saturday night dinner. The schnitzel barely fits on the plate !

Don Valley Parkway burning car action.

Breakfast by Chef Lemon (a before and after shot).

Sunday lunch at the mall. Does the eating ever stop ?

A fun time was had by all. But you can keep the cold and snow !

Carpe Diem.

Visiting LM Pie and Viv

I spent the weekend with Spike and Aviva in Toronto. It was a brief but enjoyable visit. Timing was a bit off as they had just had the biggest snow fall of the season.

“Pay it forward” and volunteering

I am a true fan of the “pay it forward” movement. I find it very gratifying to do small things for people and ask not to be paid back but for them to pay it forward. I was at a fast food establishment the other day and a lady in front of me was struggling to decide what she wanted (could afford). So I politely asked her what she wanted to get and she told me. She was about $1.50 short so I paid the balance. Maybe one day that person will do something (anything) for someone else. What a concept.

I am still volunteer driving for the American Cancer Society and Jewish Family services. I find it really rewarding and am so glad that I am able to do this. I have met some very interesting people that have opened my eyes to a lot of different things.

I also volunteered at a Holocaust Survivors Lunch. It was a privilege to meet these people.

Carpe Diem.

P.S. What the hell else am I supposed to do ? I don’t have a job ! :-)

Well done Baltimore Ravens

You did our City proud.

Carpe Diem.

It’s been a month

I miss the “old bugger”.

Chemo 6 (Round 8)

Jeez, this one crept up quickly !

Bucket list

The “Bucket List" has been renamed. 

It’s now "The things to do before handing in your credit cards".

Carpe Diem.

Scan results

Doc Schraeder just left a message. He said that overall it was a good scan result. Less naughty stuff (my words) showing and no activity elsewhere (no spread).

I'm hoping to speak to him later today and also get copies of the reports.

Needless to say, I'm delighted, overjoyed and chuffed-as-hell.

Carpe Diem.

Scan day

Today is my 3 monthly PET/CT scan.

Carpe Diem.
