I still haven't gone over to my doctor's office to pick up the blood test results. Wish they'd mail them to me. I got a call from the surgeon's office today and have an appointment on October 21st for consultation. I will be going to the Rome office for that at 3 pm. Guess it will be dark driving home from there just like it was last year. But at least things are getting started. I'll be going out in the winter weather probably for all kinds of tests again and probably won't have the surgery till after new years by the way it seems. They are so busy. I just hope he will do it and that the cancer hasn't spread too far. If it has then he won't do any surgery. No use in it then. But I'm keeping a positive attitude and hoping I will have it done. I am so sick of this pain in my butt and being afraid that I'll mess my pants all the time. The bag will be much better. If I die in surgery then that's okay too. I'm not afraid.
I still have to call the funeral home and get things set up for my cremation. I'm going to have Fenner's do it. I like those people. No funeral services and no memorial services!! Don't want any of that stuff! People can remember me the way they want to.
It's a gloomy, wet day. I did get out at 1 pm to the stores though and got what I needed. I liked the rain falling. It's about 60 degrees here today. The days are getting shorter and the leaves are falling fast. Won't be long before that white stuff starts falling. But I really do like winter if I can watch it from inside.
I'm in contact with my father's son that he had after mom died. Going to give him a few things. Pictures and information. He really wants to know his dad's side of the family. He'll be 46 in October. I wish I had gotten in contact with him years ago. I tried a few years back and did talk to one of his sisters but never got an address. I did tell her to tell him about the family reunion though but he didn't come. Maybe he will next year so he can meet his relatives. He has six kids of his own. One of his sons got killed in an accident two years ago. I'll be meeting him maybe in the next couple weeks to give him some things of dads.
That's all for now. Take care everyone.
