Life is like a box of fukn chocolates

[DWC]

2020 was just a flat out roller coaster. Bought our place in Havasu, Covid kicked into full gear, market tanked, spent a shitload of time on the water, oldest moved to St Louis, spent a ton of time riding bikes/dirt cars, youngest moved out, market came back
Figured 2021 would be a cake walk but it turns out not so much. After a 12 year hiatus my wife’s breast cancer decided to make a return appearance. The good news is that they caught it early during her regular check-ups. Every MRI, scan and ultrasound outside the breast has been negative. Looking forward to getting today’s surgery over and getting back to a little more normal.
Don’t take a moment with your wife/kids for granted. Never know when you’re gonna bite into the chocolate with the shitty Cherry filling.

We've had a couple friends (and my mom) that are breast cancer survivors that had it come back a second time as well. Breast cancer isn't the death sentence it used to be. The technology and procedures have grown leaps and bounds. As you said, get the surgery over, get to healing and get to living!! It'll be all good.

More like the coconut crap

Here's to 2021 turning around for you and your family

We are going through this also. My wife had the lumpectomy 3 weeks ago. The word is, no Chemo but 3 weeks of radiation plus hormone blocker pills for 5 years.
Hopefully a year or so from now we are both celebrating one year cancer free.

Glad they caught it early, will be thinking of you and your family!

[boatdoc55]

Best to your wife and family!! Mine's been cancer free for 16 years and she kicked it's ugly ass Twice, 2 years apart from each other. They know a whole lot more about it now, she'll be fine doing what she does in no time.

Congrats to both of you. Sounds like you’re through the toughest part. Those hormone blockers were a bit of a ride though. Threw my wife into early menopause. Holy hell. At least i had the kids around to spread the love.

 

[DWC]

So sorry to to hear the news. I totally know the feeling. Please let us know if you two need anything......ANYTHING!!!!!

Thanks sir. Will do. We need to get together the next time you’re out.

Thanks Steve. Yeah, they just finished a 9hour operation. Talked to both surgeons and everything went as planned. Hoping to get her home Sunday. Don’t think we’ll back back in the Can Am anytime real soon but hope to be back out in a few weeks.
Heading home to drink a glass of wine until the bottle is gone.

 

[DILLIGAF]

Life throws shit at us when least expected.

9 hours....wow.

Keep positive no matter how hard it can be, because it will keep you and your wife going. Please keep us posted.

 

[DWC]

9 hours....wow.

Yeah, turns out the second time around is a little more complex. I can’t imagine the skill and patience that it takes to do that procedure. Glad they do.

 

[riverroyal]

9 hours of intense focus on your feet. I cant do 1 hour.
Doctors are a special group for sure.

 

[DLC]

That is crazy it’s a 9 hour deal! Glad it went as Planned!

STEPH IS A FIGHTER AND SHE WILL KNOCK THIS CRAP OUT OF THE PARK!!! That’s a long day ! Relax TONIGHT !!! Rest up! you’ll be on tomorrow!

Cheers!
