Feel free to criticize or just comment.
I had something else to talk about this morning, but I am interrupting my previously scheduled broadcast. I woke up this morning and watched the latest video post by a friend of mine, Rob, who is in the middle of a prolonged fight with cancer, which originated in a testical, moved on to his liver, stopped a few other places and is currently attacking his lymph node system. He is back in the hospital for round two, which has meant more chemo, stem cell transplants, and shortly surgery to remove his lymph nodes in hopes that his Beta HCG levels will drop further than they have. He found out yesterday that after weeks of steady declines in those levels, they failed to significantly drop over the last few days. Not a terrible sign, but not exactly a great one either.
So. I wanted to post this to encourage people, take the time you would have spent leaving a comment here on this photo and instead send Rob a short message wishing him well, encouraging him along, letting him know that even complete strangers are rooting him along. It really helps.
His Flickr stream.
Rob's Fight for Feuille page. While you are there, buy a Fight for Feuille t-shirt.
And his video blog.
And last, Planet Cancer. An excellent resource and support system for young adults with cancer.
But rather than just looking and watching folks, seriously, send him a quick note. Reach out and help support him. I mean it, instead of leaving me comments about how moving it is, go leave Rob one. It will do much more good that way.

Gilda’s Club New York City was named for Gilda Radner, the brilliant comedian and one of the original cast members of Saturday Night Live. For years, she made us laugh with memorable characters like Baba Wawa, Emily Litella and Roseanne Roseannadanna. Gilda was diagnosed with ovarian cancer in 1986. She learned to live with cancer with help from a support community she joined in California, where she felt she could express what she was really feeling—an experience she described in her autobiography, It’s Always Something. It was her dream that anyone touched by cancer would be able to receive the kind of emotional and social support that she had found. Following her death in 1989, Gilda’s husband, Gene Wilder and her cancer psychotherapist, Joanna Bull started the Gilda’s Club movement. In June, 1995 GCNYC opened its signature red door – Gilda’s legacy to everyone living with cancer.
Since opening, GCNYC has offered a place where men, women and children living with cancer – and their families and friends – can join together to build social and emotional support as a supplement to medical care. New Yorkers touched by cancer embraced the opportunity to join their free support community, and by 1997, GCNYC had over 1,000 members. The success of their flagship prompted the formation, in 2000, of Gilda’s Club Worldwide, an organization dedicated to developing a national network of clubhouses.
Many other milestones have followed. They now have over 5,000 members, including many at their community satellites in Brooklyn and the Bronx, and their Manhattan Clubhouse has seen over 100,000 member visits. And in honor of their 10th anniversary in 2005, the City of New York renamed West Houston Street between Varick Street and 6th Avenue “Gilda Radner Way.”
Gilda’s Club New York City continues to grow, expanding both their program and their membership. Every year, nearly 35,000 people are diagnosed with cancer in New York City, and each diagnosis affects an entire circle of family and friends. Once you walk through their red door, you enter a special community where living with cancer is the common denominator — and you can choose how you would like to participate. Their goal is to ensure that social and emotional support is available to every New Yorker, because no one should have to face cancer alone.

Macmillan Coffee Morning at Lightley Court, Sandbach (16/09/2013). This was held in the communal lounge of the Sheltered Court where I live.
A better than expected turnout for our Macmillan Coffee Morning on Monday. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves and were not shy in parting with their cash. The people who attended not only donated to the coffee morning but also gave money for the walk I did for Macmillan last week.
With the walk money included we raised £234.05 on the day.
Text COFFEE 69H to 70550 if you would like to add to the amount raised.
Digital transformation in healthcare is reliant on a new approach to digital development. The technology can’t be viewed as being separate to the delivery of services but must be seen as part of the service.

Joe Lavin leaves the "sin bin" (penalty box) after serving his time. I took this at the "Pink in The Rink" game against the Milwaukee Admirals. The IceHogs won the game 3-1 that night.
Malignant brain tumors contain cancer cells and often do not have clear borders. They are considered to be life threatening because they grow rapidly and are more difficult to treat
Jeannie's late husband, Bill Fleeman, was the inspiration for the event. She hosted our pre-party in her lovely home in Pinnacle.
