Dear Bill,
I shouldn't have to say it, but it does need to be said. Everything has been a whirlwind the past few weeks for me. I suppose that the most accurate statement to make that the past year and a half have been more than just a crazy emotional trying time.
About this time last year, Caswell (Roland's husband, Bill's step grand-DAD) was brought into the VA hospital and it was discovered that he had a colon cancer. The cancer had wrapped itself around a section of his large intestine. There was emergency surgery and it was removed. More accurately most of it was removed.
With chemotherapy treatments and the use of the Rife machine, Caswell was getting better and better. He had an ileostomy, which he wasn't happy about and worked hard to get them removed.
October 2013, Caswell went into surgery and had his ileostomy reversed. It was discovered that the cancer had covered his liver with freckles and about two-thirds of his liver was covered with cancer spots. He was given a prognosis of living as long as 2 to 3 years without treatment, and longer with treatment.
November 2013, Caswell developed an infection. It was taken care of at the Boulder Community Hospital.
What happens when the panic, a nervous break down and growing up meet at a dinner for coffee. Also... mainly for now.. to let everyone know what is going on in my head and how much I could not be doing this without them.
