June 09 It looks good, it’s very tender, no hair but it’s good.
June 09 Peter’s birthday, waiting on some clarification. They found something on his left lung???
July 09 The result came back, possible melanoma tumour (9mm big). Strange, on last result back in Nov 08, it was just shadow on the lung.
July 09 It will be fine!!! We will defeat this together.
Sep 09 The Room 214A day after his left lung operation. One titanium staple and 70cm tube inside his body wrapt around his lung. Apparently, doctors cold not believe his speedy recovery and his resistance to pain.
