Updates

Thank you everyone for keeping my dad and family in your thoughts!  It is much appreciated.  The news today has my dad feeling better.  The doctors believe it is stage 3 because of the aggressiveness of the cancer cells but they believe it is highly treatable form and possibly curable.  He has another appointment on Tuesday at the Cleveland Clinic then should be starting chemo either next week or the week after.  

-------------------

I believe nearly every single person has today off from work.  My company doesn't like to go with the norm apparently and we have Monday off.  So random.  I would rather have today to get ready for the weekend.  Regardless it is a long weekend either way so that is good.  And at least it is a quiet day with everyone not working and I can catch up on some things (and possibly leave early).  

The cold is still lingering around - ugh.  Even with this junk I was able to get 2 days of cross-training done the past 2 days and I am hoping to get out for a short easy run today and longer run tomorrow.  I'm itching to get back out there especially since the temps have been cooler.  

Happy 4th of July!  Have a fantastic weekend and be safe!

Glad to hear the positive news. Hope the beginning of treatment goes well.

BTW, I'll be running the "run from the cops" 5k in Itasca at the end of August. I think that's not too far from you, right?
