Bumpity, bump, bump, bump...

It has been an interesting week or so. We recently found out that the pain in Callum's knee has nothing to do with cartilage or ligaments, and they are suspecting it is cancer. He will have a biopsy tomorrow morning (June 15) and hopefully we know something within a week or so. He is feeling fine, except for the blasted pain in his knee. It is really quite disappointing for him to feel so well but not have full mobility.

It is just another bump along the way - that is our perspective, anyway! We really won't find out any treatment plan until we have the biopsy results. The orthopedic surgeon we saw is an awesome doctor! Very respectful, thorough, and patiently explains things so we are able to understand.

We have a busy month coming up with birthdays, visitors and graduations. We are looking forward to seeing so many people and having a wonderful time visiting.

I would be lying if I said I wasn't worried. This is another scary bump. One we knew would happen, but it doesn't make it less scary. I don't thing anyone can not feel scared when they find out there is cancer active in their body, or the body of someone you love. But don't count my stubborn husband down and out - he has already surprised the hell out of a lot of us, and he can do it again!

I will keep the blog more updated as things happen and we have news.

In the meantime....here's a picture of a proud Grandad!

FACE YOUR FEARS

You gain strength, courage, and confidence by every experience in which you really stop to look fear in the face... The danger lies in refusing to face the fear, in not daring to come to grips with it... You must make yourself succeed every time. You must do the thing you think you cannot do. Eleanor Roosevelt
