In Memoriam>Good news [Lonewolf Ed]
Lonewolf Ed 04:51 PM 01-24-2015
I thought I'd start a new thread for updates on my cancer treatments and whatever else is going on, since the bad news thread title is misleading now.

My last treatment went better than the previous two and my chest wound is still closed up, which is a good thing. My arm is getting slightly stronger and I hope to resume lifting dumbbells next week. I need to build up my strength again, because I am going back to Denmark in May and I am extremely pumped about that! I'd like to be able to schlepp my own checked bag and not have someone else lifting it for me.

It's going to be a fabulous trip, 6 weeks and a couple of days for me. My brother is going along as well as my friends Chipp and Rod. Chipp is staying close to 3 weeks and has not gone with me over there since 2006 so he is also very pumped to be going. It will be Rod's first trip and he will be there for 2 weeks. I will get to be a tour guide. Also, I am throwing a party in my favorite pub of all, the wonderful, ever-magnificent Irish House in Aalborg on May 7th. The owner and I are friends and he will give me a little discount. We'll have Irish stew and brews in the cellar and I hope to have around 25 family and friends there. I might bill it as the "Fu** Cancer Party." A few months back, I was not sure I'd ever be able to go over to Denmark again or if I'd even be alive, but the cancer hasn't gotten me yet. I'm doing a number on it, instead.

Some other cool things I plan to do when I am back in my ancestral lands include a wine tasting in a castle, touring another castle and the northernmost manor home in the country, and visiting Skagen, the top of Denmark, where you can stand on a little patch of beach and have one foot in one sea and one in another. They also have a brewpub up there I am wanting to check out. I will start and end my trip in Aalborg and spend 5 weeks in an apartment I rent that is very close to the beach. I can hardly wait for May 4th to roll around!

I'm liking how 2016 is starting. That's great news Lone. Keep-up the fight, you're kicking cancer right in its tiny little dick!

Just outstanding Ed. Great news to start 2016. Now do to that demon in your liver what you did to the freeloader in that colon.

That's right, but it was more like an UNLOADER than a freeloader in there! :-)

I made a big dinner yesterday and had my friends Chipp and Rod over, plus my brother is here. We're all life members of the King Christian IV Guild in Aalborg, Demark, so I thought we ought to wear red since the Guild elders wear red robes to the functions and I called the dinner the Midwest Chapter KC IV Guild Meeting. I hope they post the pics I sent on the Guild website, but if not, it was still a great evening, and since I have not been on chemo for over 2 weeks, I wasn't exhausted from all the cooking and table setting! And so you know, I am on the left of the pic (I am the tallest one), then Rod, my brother Darron, and Chipp.

Wow Ed, you're looking GREAT, you're really putting the weight back on... sooo glad to hear the good news about your test results!

A very happy new years to you, see what the power of positive thinking can do?
