It's been quite awhile since I've posted. My life has been filled with so much that blogging has seemed insignificant. My husband of 37 years next month found out he had kidney cancer last November and had major surgery to remove the tumor on January 31 of this year. But prior to that he underwent gall bladder surgery and then in May he had a disk in his neck fused. Most recently he had cataract surgery done in both eyes. The great news is that I have my husband and he is doing great. It's as if he never went through any surgery. He feels perfectly fine and has recovered well. His cancer was found early and he has a clean bill of health. No chemo or radiation needed. We are grateful and have been blessed through all of the prayers on his behalf.
Now we have his retirement to look forward to. November is when he'll be hanging up his hard hat from 35 years at Monsanto. I'll probably work one more year just to supplement until Rick's social security kicks in next year. But we are prepared and ready for this time in our lives.
