Wow, can't believe you were able to get that update in there Paul. But thanks! I hope you are coping better with the pain now, at least.
I want to hear all those stories that were mentioned. I'm missing out over here! lol
XOXO

Morphine makes me sound funny. My last two posts were spelled / composed worse than any others. I have been trippin'! New strong drugs have got me to a place(s) that is much more entertaining than constant pain. Perhaps it is fronm watching TV too much now, but my mind seems split into tiny chanels, one main feed with a hundred little screens.
I will start tlking to Ruth about....
Exactly. Reboot!
My mind wanders. I will often realize that I am talking out some elaborate story I see vividly in my brain. Then, upon seeing Ruth's face and confuzed expression, I realize I have been spewing nonscence. Huh! I've moved from throwing up bile to regurgitating thoughts and fantasies. It's almost a train-of-thought-thing that just won't stop.
I'm a loud bastard
no matter what I do.
Luckiy for me
I found one of the FEW
who can stand this
sort of strong Man
and keep him
chasing Her LOVE...
I LOVE RUTH. I LOVE HER!
I found her. I found Love!
(I didn't even deserve it. But she came.)

You found it because you deserve it far more than you know.
Best wishes!

Nice photos.
Don't worry about coherency or spelling or grammar.
Just enjoy being without pain.
We're happy for you that you found something that finally works.

thanks for posting Paul. Loved the pics, your coherency given circumstances is just fine. I know you don't like the heavy meds but it seems better than the terrible pain. Rather read about your "vomiting" strange and crazy thoughts and stories than bile! Got my cuppa tea here, enjoying it with you. You are my guidance on how to live life on your own terms! Susan

Mr. Humperhay!
My trip up north never materialized, but I have some time at my disposal, and I can come up whenever it's best for you. Even short notice works since I am only 6 hours away. Love you buddy. Thanks for posting the pics. I'll see you soon.

I am glad you are not in constant pain. I see your being watched over through the years, decades, even when you don't think so. You are cared for and loved.
I would like see you, whether in Santa Rosa or if you are up further north if that is okay. Again, I would understand if it is too much. :)marcella

Paul,
You and this thread continue to always amaze me . The openness and honesty dealing with your melanoma is something you rarely see. I want to thank you for your incredible writing and your strength. You opened a window that made it ok to talk about your life & death struggles. When we are no longer able to read your words, the silence will be deafening.
We are blessed with your beautiful writing and for honestly sharing your life with us here...Thank you..Thank you..Thank you..
Saludos..Best wishes to you and Ruth and Pastor Dave..
xoxo
