Three hours until check in.

I try to say, it's just s surgery, you have been cut open before, you will be fine. But this is an amputation, nothing is going to be the same. Things will be Ok and there will be periods of greatness, just like before cancer. But they won't be the same.

This may be the biggest hurdle of my cancer fight and it may be the beginning of a much longer journey. This is just the first thing that I can actually do to try and save my life.

But great news, the CT scan was clear, no sign of anything in my lung!

Three hours, and I can't have coffee.

I feel like I should have some profound thoughts, but I don't, I will blame it on the lack of coffee.
