Bad news last week, my 16 year old daughter has been diagnosed with ovarian cancer.
7 years ago yesterday, at age 9, Rachel thought it would be funny to sign up to my 914 site from school. She became a member, still on the books as "Tracks914's daughter". After she signed up there were a lot of lude comments made and many members felt pretty bad when they found out she was 9 years old. It was a real good learning experience for both her (I let her read the comments) and the members "joking around". We still joke about it this day. Last month she had a teratoma the size of a mayonase jar and one ovary removed. It took 5 weeks to find out it was cancerous. (one of the downfalls of living in Northern Ontario) Since removal it has regrown to a size almost as big as before. We went out of town on Friday to start Chemo ASAP and got home last night after the first week of many treatments to follow. It will be tough time for the foreseeable future and definately time to sell one of my 914's. I'm not a religous man but quasi beleive in the power of positive thinking. Any positive thoughts would be appreciated. Tx Doug Below a picture of Rachel and me in Cuba 2 weeks before her surgury. Attached image(s)
