I wanted to let you know what is going on in my life since I last posted on Veterans Day. As some of you know my cancer has taken a different path as of lately. I started to feel a little worse as the winter approached and it has gone downhill since. Not to complain however, our holidays were excellent especially being with the worlds most wonderful grandsons; soooo cute!!!
Our business is doing well. Bryan, our property manager, is doing a good job at keeping 85+ rental units occupied and thanks to Terry our trusted maintenace man of about 15 years along with Bryan for taking care of the maintenance. I don’t go into the office but about 1/2 a day a week. My wonderful caregiver and wife of 46 years takes care of me and drives me where I need to go. About a month ago I decided to give up driving due to my fear of hurting others due to my pain meds I am on. The docs are still trying to regulate my pain meds.
This past Monday, my oncologist told me he had done all he can do. So Monday, I go to a new doctor at a new hospital. In business as well as in life, we do all we can do and never give up until going forward is fruitless. i will keep you posted until that time comes.
Sort of a brief reflection of my life has been very enjoyable as I have some of my days consumed by remembering growing up, starting businesses, and the birth of our children. Another highlight recently took place when 17 of my Fr. Ryan HS buddies showed up at our home with food and drinks. Many lies were told that afternoon. I was overwhelmed by their love and friendship.
These 66 years to date has left me with many great thoughts now compressed into my biography.
My faith has continued to grow stronger day by day the past several years and continues every day. Thanks to my family, friends, relatives and God for helping make my days better.
God bless to each of you.
