****'s Birthday!

Hi Everyone,
Today is ****'s 54th birthday, his 3rd birthday since his stage 3c diagnosis. We can't believe he has been in this so long (and we know many of you have been in it longer) and we are tired but we are grateful.
As you know, we have had many, many hard days and weeks. 57 or so rounds of chemo for **** and 2 major surgeries. He has suffered and that has sucked. And, during the past almost 3 years we have had, many, many, many beautiful days. Right now the sun is starting to go down and he is out stand up paddling in some good surf right in our neighborhood bay. I am cooking seared ahi, artichokes, brown rice and bok choy. We will sit down as a family and have a meal together and celebrate and for that I am very, very, very grateful.
We don't know what the next year or even then next week will bring but I wanted to encourage some of you who may be starting out in this nightmare that there may be the opportunity for some wonderful days.
Thank you for your continued support.

Aloha,
Kathleen
