Seems Sam had a pretty good day today, several phone calls, lots of cards, and just general good wishes. Thank you to everyone! He wanted to write individual thank you cards, and I hope you do not mind, but I talked him out of it.
He took himself outside today for a bit of sunshine while I went to the office. Apparently it took a lot out of him, much more than he anticipated. This evening he acted like he would not be doing that again, but...well...it is Sam we are talking about here.
Tomorrow is the appointment with the VA primary physician in the morning and the oncologist in the afternoon. He is still talking that he is going to say no more treatment. We all need to keep in mind, though, that even if he says no more treatment for now, he could change his mind at some point. It all remains to be seen. No matter what he decides, it will be the right decision for him and I will support it 100%.
As for me, Alaska is one big tinder box right now. If you live in Alaska, please be very careful. Today I received a report of a small fire on CIRI land along the Kenai River. 15 more feet and it would have been a disaster, made even more so because the area is located between Kenai and Soldotna. Crazy thing is, there is no need for campfires right now anyway. Daylight lasts until the wee hours of the morning and the temperatures are extremely high for us. And remember...you will be found if you are the guilty party. Be safe and be smart.
