We journeyed to Omaha early last Friday to have Tracy's power port removed. This was the 5th (and hopefully final) surgery that Tracy has had, and it proved to be the easiest. The surgery took around 45 minutes with the actual removal of the port taking only 10 minutes. After getting home, Tracy took it easy for the rest of the day. But she was pretty active on Saturday, slowing down to rest on the couch several times.
With the weather improving and days getting longer, I can't help but feel that the improving weather mirrors our outlook on Tracy's health. The future looks brighter. We look forward to having a more active spring together. One thing that we are now gearing up for is this year's Relay for Life. We're getting some final details in place for our fund raising efforts for this year.
There will be no shortage of motivation for fund raising this year. We continue to see the effects of cancer all around us. Saturday, I attended the funeral of a cousin who passed away after battling late stage pancreatic cancer. He had already lost his wife nine years ago, and they leave behind a 13-year old son and 11-year old daughter.
It is time to find a cure.
