It is now August 2009

The physical pain has gone away but, the mental pain lingers on.  Adjusting to my new lifestyle is
still hard.  

I have a really hard time getting motivated.  I must admit I do feel sorry for myself at times.  I
overcome this just like I have the past 8 months by reminding myself others have worse
problems.  Also I am alive.  

I am still waiting on the insurance company to approve the last test a PET it is called to make
sure all the cancer is gone.  I feel deep down it is.  I am not gaining weight but my appetite is
better and I do believe my stomach is stretching so it should just be gaining weight in a matter of
time.  

I have decided rather than laying around feeling sorry for myself and worrying I will get back to the
matter at hand.  I need to forge on with this website.  The economy is still in the toilet and people
are still getting sick.  I know I can help a handful of people and that is what I need to do.  

While I was laying in the bed all those months my mind raced as to what I could do with this
website.  When I could not sit to work I would write on a legal pad.  I have months of notes.  I
guess it just seems all so overwhelming at this time.  I have so much I want to do and know it is
going to take months to accomplish.

Yes, I know Rome was not built in a day and with the faith of a mustard seed I can get this done.  I
also know the best way to accomplish something big is with help.  As a reminder my Mother sent
me an email the other day as to why geese fly in an arrow formation.  It reminded me that we all
need help and there is no shame in asking for or accepting help.  

This being said I would like to enlist all of you to look into your community and find groups and
organizations that can help with this program.  It is my mission to reach as many households as
possible to give them hope.  

Please forward your suggestions to my

Thank you again for your time.
