We are now racing through July! My cryo-ablation procedure took place in Los Angeles … and we wanted to wait to see if it worked … and both Randy and I now feel that it was uber successful! The ever present pain level is still bad … but more manageable. At this point, I have come to the realization that there will always be pain … sad, but true … but I can deal with a level 3-4 … yep that means that Fluffy is still there, growling in the corner … but not nearly as bad as dealing with the gnawing nastiness of a constant level 8-9 that I had been dealing with until we had this latest procedure.
I talk about these numbers for pain level … gotta let you know that I am really pretty shitty about rating my pain … I try and be consistent, but pain is its own little beast and rating it can be overwhelming and not really accurate. That being said, I do wish I could be more forthcoming … I am trying to do my best.
Life is very fleeting … A very close friend of ours died unexpectedly at the end of June, and it just took the wind out of my sails … I mean, I am writing about my battle and all, and for Randy and my friend Roy—just so powerful and crazy that at 56 years young…..poof….just done. I tell my friends and family that I just don’t feel like I am done yet … but are any of us really finished with what we have been put on this earth to do, I don’t know. So, with Roy in mind, I am trudging forward, giving it my best each and every day that I do myself proud in what I set my mind to on that day, taking the next corner or obstacle the best I can. So, until next time know that I am in a pretty good place, kicking it back in Poway California, enjoying visits from family and friends and trying so hard to tackle this crazy cancer that has taken hold of me … but has not become me.

We are very pleased the cryo treatment for pain was a success. You are amazing and spending time recently was really special. Your resolve to fight the fight is very apparent. I really like what you did with the patio furniture and that social area. Your mind and creativity for cool looks and use of materials to make something special is so unique. RocknPine is just incredible with your imprint everywhere. We can’t wait to see what’s next. Just live life and enjoy us all because we really enjoy you. Nothing but pure Love for you to feel better each day in this courageous fight.
Love,
Chris, Bea, and Matt.

Sure did enjoy seeing that picture of you and Roy. I liked Roy the minute I met him. Same way I felt about you. There is a special aura of some folks that makes meeting a pleasure. I’ve been researching that cryo therapy – amazing stuff. Carry on Peggy – as you say, life is fleeting, and we all need to make the best of what time we have here.
