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!

Finally! Launch day is here! I'm fighting back tears at the prospect of leaving this afternoon. I am still alive, I feel strong and good, and I am ready to get my adventure underway. My feet feel better today so I won't have trouble walking through O'Hare and Copenhagen International airports. Denmark, I am coming home to you soon!

THIS is the flag of my people, the Dannebrog. Long may she fly high and proud!

I am in Denmark now. I didn't post earlier since we got caught in a deluge as we exited the bus and trudged along to the hotel. A bolt of lightning struck a mile out and thunder ripped the sky, then it really came down. I had my raincoat on but my jeans got soaked and so did my suitcase and carry-on bag. My socks and underwear are wet and other clothing items, too. After a hot shower, we all went to my second cousin's apartment and had a magnificent feast. They stuffed us to the gills to the point none of knew if we could even eat the ice cream for dessert with a Portugese port wine. We had 3 or 4 types of meat, various salads, potaotes, stuffing, and it was all superbly delicious. And we drank a lot of beer, trying 6 new kinds for me and most were outstanding while one was merely quite a bit above average. After that wonderful feast, I took my group to the Duus (which is in my signature pic) and had a brew, then to the Irish House for another. Why I woke up at 3 am loclal time, I have no idea. Well, I do... damned colon cancer. Aside from that, I feel good iniside and out and very happy to be back!

I danced with a woman at the Irish House two nights back and she even asked me to dance some more. It's a good thing my feet got a lot better. I was hobbling around like I had glass in them for 2 days, thanks to lingering chemo in my system. I've been flushing my system out with many tasty brews, though.

Cancer is the scariest word in the dictionary. It's awesome that you're responding well to the Chemo.
God Bless You.

I am in Lokken now and it is cold out there! The blood thinner I am on makes me feel colder outside, and that is so odd to me. I used to love a chill in the air.

When in doubt... Have another beer. So awesome to hear that you are having such a good time. Way to kick some ass Ed!
