THE JOURNEY CONTINUES

my favorite flower..birds of paradise

hELLO ALL,

well it looks like the rumour is true ..i need some more surgery...scar tissue is building up in my small intestine and if nothing else they will try to clear that up so i can get back to living normally...it has been quite uncomfortable some days in the digestive area...it appears that my intestine behind the blockage has fallen asleep and causing me all sorts of problems...well it is time to wake it up ..or take part of it out....let's get on with it......

surgery is monday the 29th...at Sloane kettering....will try to update from there.....

looking foward to all expenses paid vacation in nyc......round the clock nurses....room service.....i don't even have to take out the garbage....they not gonna know what hit them.....i am returning to the scene of the crime...........( man i bet the insurance companies hate the cheffo name....

ANNIVERSARY..........

2007 leukemia fund raiser "walking tall for the cure" over $4,500 raised

oct 13 2005.....the day i was told i had cancer......

i still remember those words like it was yesterday....."mr. cheffo, we have even a bigger problem you are going to have to have your bladder removed......but the good news is we are going to be able to replace it with a piece of you intestine"..you can only imagine my reaction " are your freakin kidding me" was what i think i said.....well two years have gone by and i would be amiss if i didn't mention it here in the very format that got me through most of the dark days...you see when i was able to write about my day it took a huge load off what my body was going through....i still remain humbled in the reaction and support of family and friends...

well i am here to say that my NEO_BLADDER is working fine although i am still not gaining weight (due to the fact that scar tissue has built up in my intestines) that is a conversation for my next blog....(looks like they need to go back in to fix it)...stay tuned for PART ll OF "MY WALK IN THE PARK"...............part one was such and adventure part ll is gonna be a piece of cake........

all my love

tom.........
