Updates and Stuff

Kelly and I at Patrick's honor dinner in Lake Placid on June 15th.  We had a blast.  After the dinner, it was change into comfy clothes, head to the bar area and dance the night away.  Not me, the younger kids, I just drink and watch.










He is Grandpa with his youngest grandson wearing what we called his Papa shirt.  He was such a good boy but when it came time to eat, he was more than ready and no way was he hanging around for the speeches.  there was a swimming pool he wanted to use!

Memorial Day -- he was having good time here too.

With Mommy and Daddy, not sure who's shoulder's her preferred but Daddy is taller so that's a higher vantage point.






So, on Friday, June 14th I had my follow up mammogram.  Gotta tell ya, I was nervous as hell but I was doing my level best to remain positive. Well, it worked, there was no cancer cells seen and all films looked good.  I even got to see the films of where the tumor was found a year ago and now compared the films to the this day.  Believe me, I was one happy camper.  I doth believe it is safe to say I am disease free.

Still have not had that lovely bone healthy infusion but that will happen in due course. Been thru the dental aspect, so that has been cleared.

June 18th Pat and I head back to Burlington, Vt. and tomorrow he will have a ct scan and some kind of intervention radiology test done, where dye is used and watched to ascertain whether there is any other holes or the drain is done and can be removed.  If the latter is the case, it will be taken out, then we'll leave the main hospital and head to Williston, just a short distance away to see his surgeon before heading back home.  So another trip for us clowns.

We are looking forward the 4th of July as my niece has indicated she and her boyfriend plan to visit and my sister will be here, we'll have quite a bit of family.  BBQ and cool drinks, nothing fancy, just low keyed and relaxing.  Hopefully the weather will be nice too.  Lately all we get is rain and more damn rain. We could use some dry weather and warmer temps.  This morning it was 48 degrees -- holy crap!!!

So ya all have fun and stay happy.  So proud of my granddaughter, she passed all her swim tests and my grandson is doing great playing ball this year and running track too.  Wow, busy summer. Daughter-in-law and son are great parents and enjoying life too.  Keep smiling
