August 8, 2010


This was another great day, I did leave home for two hours to attend church and what a great feeling that was having missed last week. I have never felt such an out pouring of love and kindness. I came home and soon afterward my youngest son, his wife Amber and the two little ones Austin and Brighton the twins came to what a joy grandchildren are such a great blessing from our Father-In-Heaven. I felt okay I can tell I am losing my strength with this battle but my spirits are so good. I have found that there are so many different families in my life. I have my nuclear family with Jan my wife Lisa my daughter and her family and Brian my son and his family. Then I have various church families’ members and organization, my work family, Jan’s work family, and then in my treatment at Huntsman I have several teams of family working for my well-being. This does not include my many good and supportive friends over the years that have come to see me from far away. I am very blessed and this is what keeps me going. The love that is shared it makes it easy to keep a positive attitude not matter the outcome. I never would have thought this possible. I love my neighbors and their small children and the joy they bring into my life. I love the former Dentist who is here to take care of me and provide shots I love the neighbor who has worked so hard making sure we  have help to clean the home. I love neighbor who is working too hard to make sure I have transportation to and from the hospital so Jan can go to school and work and not have to compromise her position. I feel good emotionally, socially and spiritually. What a gift physically I am between 20and 25 percent of what I used to be. All I can say is that I am blessed and I know I could never make this treatment on my own. If I make it through it, the reason will be because of all the good people around me who have carried me. If I don’t my life is so much richer and I have not one regret I am surrounded by the best of the best.
