<title>[Deep] Long Overdue Update</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22644162</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hi All,
My love affair with Facebook is over and I have come home to stay. :)  I got involved in Mafia Wars over there and got my accts. disabled for no reason.  I am definitely anti-Facebook now.  Who needs it anyway?

First of all, my mom's cancer is growing again. :(  She had a CT scan done on June 15th.  Her tumor in her upper left lung and the lymph nodes near her aortic arch grew by 1 cm since her scan in March.  Mom is starting more chemo next week.  She will be doing Alimta once every three weeks.  It's a quick infusion.  We are all in this for the long haul!!!!  I lost my dad to this damn disease and I am trying harder than hell not to lose my mom to it.  Cancer sucks!  (I am not working due to all of this and the economy...  No sense in beating my head against the wall job hunting or working!)

Next....  I lost my beloved Callie on May 15th due to probably kidney failure. :(  It happened so fast.  I knew Callie was not doing 100% for awhile.  It seemed like she was not taking care of herself as she should have.  Callie did not like our dogs...  They teased her and she would hiss and spit at them.  Well on May 15th, Callie laid in the living room floor and she never did that.  I took her to the vet and the decision was made to euthanize her.  I stroked her little head as the vet put her to sleep.  Callie would have been 17 years old at the end of August.  I miss her!

Finally, we took my dad's ashes to Arkansas to bury them at the beginning of May.  Much of my dad's immediate family was there...  His four sisters and thirteen of the fifteen cousins in my generation were there!  It was sooo nice to see that many family members there.  My dad's ashes are buried in an old family cemetery near my dad's youngest sister's chicken farm.

<title>[Food] 4th o&#x27; July eats?</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22650389</link>
<description><![CDATA[What's everyone gonna cook for the 4th celebration?

Here at the rusdi house I will be grillin' steak & chicken fajitas, with some grilled onions & peppers. Also roasted corn-on-the-cob with a little garlic, lime butter.

Maybe some baked beans and 'tater salad. For desert, a big slice o' cantaloupe melon. 

Drink will be cold beer for the guys, and a pitcher o' Sangria with orange, lime, and lemon slices for the ladies. Youngsters get juice. :)

Whatcha' cookin' teamies? :)

<title>[Serious] Nephew Update</title>
<link>http://www.dslreports.com/forum/remark,22653556</link>
<description><![CDATA[Hey guys!  So I am up in Connecticut now after a slightly tiring flight the day before yesterday.  It is good to see and be with family in this tough times.

I have seen and been with my 2 year old Nephew, Colin, who has brain cancer.  Colin's update, from what I experienced:

His cognitive and emotional awareness/skills seem affected to some degree.  He is mostly quite sad and in pain.  He is distended because bowel movements aren't coming along without major assistance, including via enemas.

He was brought home for the interim for his psychological and emotional well being and indeed, we did have him smile a little bit, which felt good against the bigger picture.

He is facing very very major and exceedingly dangerous surgery and getting him in as a good a frame of mind and having him strong before it is very important.

It hurts to see him in this state, but the love I feel and can cherish having seen him is big.

My sister, her husband and son, and I came over to their house, and not only visited with Colin, but gave them some very much needed help with household chores.  It felt very good being useful to the people who are so good to me.  

My birthday is coming up, and the birthday present I want is my nephew's life saved and improved.  I'll cry my head off with thanks if I can have that as a gift.  I am fighting tears as it is (so far I've been able to hold it together pretty good, which is a big feat for a guy with severe bipolar disorder).

As you all enjoy your holiday, good food, and good company, be happy, and send some of those happy waves towards my precious young nephew, Colin, if you have time.  At some point, if the time presents itself and it is "safe" to ask my brother and his wife, I will post a photo of Colin here.  I call him my little bruiser, he is a wonderful, tough little guy who is fighting a heroic battle and is very brave.

God bless you all and best wishes, from me, Mark, and my darling wife Alain and son.  Peace to you all.

EDIT:  I just want to include that I love you all here, hope you have some very happy times over the weekend!
