Today, I am still awaiting my appointment with the oncologist, and that is the next step in this journey I have been forced bo embark upon. I do not know what the future holds in store for me, obviously, but I do know that I have many friends and family rooting for me, and praying for me. I am confident that they will prevail in their well-wishes, and the prayers of the saints will help greatly. I am still looking forward to Colorado, and have not been told anything about having to cancel that trip. I will, of course, know more Thursday, but I will make every effort to keep the trip on the books, especially since I will come back refreshed and ready for the next stage in this process, in any case. Also, my strength will be tested on this trip, and I think it will be found adaquate for the rest of the journey to health which I must complete. So I hope I can still go to Colorado, and thence to Wyoming, to see the things I wish to see. Though there are no guarantees in this life, I think I shall be okay. So again, gentle reader, thank you for your attention.
