 Coil inserted. Wouldn’t let me watch, but showed me a video of the insertion. A little bit of nausea post insertion. I’m told that’s normal.

Here we go again/On the road again

 Hello, family and friends! Yes, starting out with 2 of our favourite songs!! Mamma Mia, here we go again: last November, an abdominal anomaly showed up on Linda’s CT scan; many tests later, we were told the beast had returned to her body. Then came a long and frustrating waiting game…for a surgery date. And we got that last week, Linda’s date is June 27th - hurrah!  We are hoping the lengthy wait is because Lin’s cancer is a slow-growing beast; we trust our oncologist. Then, we realized that we could follow our dream to be… On the road again (Willy!):  Next Wednesday, we’ll be leaving on the Great Trek across the country to the centre of the universe. We plan to take our time and stop in various cities to visit with friends. Then, we’ll fly to Vancouver a few days before the surgery for pre-op stuff. We’ll come back to Vernon after Linda’s release for a couple of weeks for healing and recovery before flying back to Ontario to spend more time with family. We might add som...

Update: 8-1

  Dear family and friends,  This has indeed been quite a year.     The lung surgery which removed a tumour went well, and Linda has bounced back quicker than we thought.     Yay! Unfortunately, in talking with the thoracic doctor yesterday concerning the pathology report, we learned that Lin’s PMP cancer has metastasized into her right lung.    A very rare occurrence for PMP to spread outside the abdominal area, but not entirely unexpected.   So, we will be discussing how we move forward with our wonderful oncologist, Dr. MacNeill, in the next few weeks.    The bright side is that this type of cancer tends to be slow growing so we are thankful for that. We have lived with this cancer for the past 13 years and we will continue to think positively and live boldly!!    Stay tuned for further updates, but please know we are doing okay and savouring each and every day!    Hope you do, too!!

Our Miracle Girl🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩🤩

 Wonderful news from Dr. McNeill just now!! They didn’t have to take any of Lin’s stomach. Where the wretched PMP had lodged in the epithelial layers of her stomach had formed almost a kind of bubble which was completely removed along with mucin. Looong operation!! But she getting the chemo wash now and will be sewn up soon! I can see her later this evening. All you wonderful people need to form some kind of group, look at what your combined thoughts and prayers have accomplished! She’s a Miracle Woman😍👍🤩🤗👏🏻😘😘😘😘😘😘
