Ordained Beach Bum with lots of cancers, living the dream with my wife, our revolutionary 8 yr old daughter + a clingy Dalmatian.
A highlight of my Thanksgiving was my 89 yr old Mom coming by to ask me for tips on living longer.

Feeling worse now, I yell, "Okay, let's do it."

Che runs back, dives in my lap, and hugs me, thanking me and kissing me for relenting.

She is absolutely delighted that Hospice is coming to our house today!

Uh-oh!

Hospice sent me flowers.

This can't be good.

If it's not enough incorporating Hospice into our daily lives, we have a new medical emergency in our house.

To break out of today's cancer oppression I drank 2 German beers, ate a handful of ruffles, smoked a bowl and somehow made it outside in to the hammock, where I'm receiving a transfusion of vitamin D.

Self medicating at its finest.

My wedding run kept sliding off my finger so we replaced it with Best Friend Mood Rings so we can always tell how we doing.

I'm a Hospice Patient now.

This is what it looks like on the inside.

I am under an electric blanket on high, and 4 other covers just to make sure, and asked Che (9) for a glass of water

This is what she brought me.

"Let's discuss storing your ashes," the Funeral Director suggests.

"Got it covered," I cheerfully reply, "they'll go in this Beer Stein from Germany I got when I was 16!"

The Funeral Director seemed shaken and had nothing to say.

If I should die before I wake, I wouldn't change a thing.

Dragged myself kicking and screaming to the Hammock.

Now I'm thanking my lucky stars I did.

I am mindful of last things.

This could be one.

I don't want to miss them when they come by.

This is the day the Lord hath made ...

let's see what we can do with it.

Cheers!

Rubbing Sarah's feet is the only tangibly way I can tell my wife I love her anymore, though I sometimes fall asleep in the midst of it.

These were planted on Father's Day with Che (8), who'd given them to me with the directive that I am to stay alive until they bloom.

They're doing pretty good aren't they?

Either way, we stand here now on this side of the Rainbow Bridge, not ready to cross it quite yet, squeezing every bit of the living out of dying that's possible, with Wilbur's help.

A dear friend sent me a list of all the cancers, marking the ones I already have which is pretty spectacular!

"At your rate, you could use a scorecard," he wrote.

It's hard not to love the guy.

It's hard to prep when you have serious doubts about the primary source material.

In spite of multiple stage 4 cancers, people smile and tell me I'm the lucky one.

Every day I write a love note and place it in Che's (8) lunch box.

Here's today's!

A key reason I haven't died yet is because Lainey watches me like a Hawk every day to make certain I'm doing ok.
