Hi taty !!!!
I’m paying you guys a visit after all this time. I’ve not been well but let’s
not
talk about that. I’ll talk about my burning desire to live more fully, more
compassionately, more lovingly than ever before. This last bout with cancer
really threw me for a loop. A bad one. I slowly deteriorated mentally and
physically with no real clue as to why. I knew that they had detected a tumor
in my brain but at the time, it seemed to have calcified and not be growing at
all. In fact it had not grown, according to the neurologist, for over 40 years.
He told me not to worry so I didn’t. But I never had headaches to warn me
over this time period. Well, in May I started to really decline. Come June I
was really going down fast. I fell several times and I don’t remember tripping.
I just remember walking one moment and being eye to eye with the ground
the next. But as June rolled on, I began to have more and more black outs and
in time I had to ask some friends to help me bathe. I was damned and

determined to go to San Diego and my daughter had offered to go with me.
Everyone knew by then that I was not supposed to be left alone. She arrived
and we drove out June 29. Well, I could not even get in her SUV without help
and as we continued our drive, I really started to declined. I don’t remember
anything hardly until I woke up in a hospital here in town. July 10 my
daughter and my brother drove me back to El Paso straight to emergency. By
then I was effectively comatose.
After a week in the hospital I was transferred to a Rehab Hospital and there I
stayed for 10 days. Now, I’m almost as good as new in many ways….
Emotionally I am very calm and I LOVE being able to do tasks around the
house that before I found boring. Like washing dishes, dusting, etc. Strange.
Even though the good doctors tell me that I’m a “late stage” cancer patient, I
know that they do not know about my Angels and God and my Faith. Besides,
I have the prayers of good human Angels like you and Bobby and so forth.
Sooooooo I’ve not talked or posted to you or Bobby in a long time but hopefully
I will be able to do so now that took a Medical Leave of Absence and I’m at
home all day except when I have therapies, appts., etc.
Give yourself a big hug and one for Bobby from me.
