Having chemotherapy causes some real introspection. Mike had a restless night last night, but dear Andy was here to quietly chat with Mike. I slept very soundly after having a restless night on Monday. Mike has an appetite and is up and ready for physical therapy today. We are trying to conserve energy to go to a community function tomorrow. I think it will be so good for Mike to get out and so good for many to see him.
We are so grateful for time we have together to share our thoughts and feelings. Mike is such an incredible man. Last night he was asked by a friend to tell some of his "accomplishments" and things he is most proud of. His comment was, "It doesn't matter that I did those things, it just matters that they got done."

Nancy, Do I have permision to use Mike's quote at my volunteer luncheon? Can't think of a better example of someone living their best life and making the best choices. As always, hang tough............SusanT

That's such a Mike-ism!! It's unbelievable what he's accomplished (quietly) with very little or no fanfare.
ReplyDeleteI am proud of the two outstanding men that I call my brothers. They are both wonderful men. Our Mom and Dad certainly did a great job with them both!
Love,
