Well 11/11 at 11.00 saw me on the parade as usual. First year in about 20 one of my kids wasn't there, either as an army cadet, air cadet, Cavalry Trooper or Engineer. My son had my grandson there, he's 2 soon and he said to me, Fionn will be in a uniform here by grade 6. (1st year cadets, off to 3 week summer enlistment camp). Best deal going for parents. Free uniforms, free camps, training, bush weekends. My youngest boy flew off to Quebec on a military aircraft for 3 weeks twice the first summer, never even called home and he was 12.. Freaked his mom out. Not as bad as leaving for engineering technical trades one summer in New Brunswick for 3 months and never calling..LOL)
Thousands of people there today, the Sally Ann Brass Band was amazing, and it was like the middle of summer, temp was 60 and no clouds. Last Post, Piper Lament, and Rouse. (No Taps in Canada..thanks..) 83 Fire Department members on parade. 110 at work, 40 on vacation leaves about 160 active members 'missing' in action.
I went from there to my GP. He had the results of my CT scan. 1. No tumours, all gone. It is 3 pages to say complete resolution of rt. neck lymph node tumours. 2. Thickening of area near base of tongue, probable radiation scarring and damage, comparative scan at a future date to verify.
And, peripheral neuropathy is stable should not deteriorate further. Hearing stable, will not improve, should not worsen much except as is normal in aging.
I'd have a celebratory drink. Vernor's ginger ale.
If all stays well gastric feeding tube comes out at the end of next week. I see the 3 cancer specialists at a meeting next week, this is their preliminary report, I just got the sneak preview while getting my medications reviewed. I was just leaving the docs and my Dad walked in for a checkup.. he's 84, no health issues other than a sore hand caused by slapping his chair during a hockey game. Which he admits...
Now time for me to suck it up.

Indeed, this is the good news we've all been waiting for! You'll be back at the cabin with enough energy to run the chain saw again before long

Thanks everyone, and Daisy, you must live in the wrong town. Here there will be at least 4 places where you would hear that song. Ten years ago, in my 'youth' LOL, I would have been there for sure, singing along. One of my fav's was when they do Ten Drunken nights. When you get to the phrase..So I called the wife and I says to her, (pause and the guys yell) "Hey bi*&h", would you kindly tell to me...(pause and the women yell) "Wadda want a$$$ole." Who's head is that upon the bed, where my old head should be.... LOL.. I send you this link, it's too bad the Rankin Family doesn't do more, and it's tragic that John Allen Cameron died. He was sort of an East Coast folk music legend, like Stan. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e3z72sY5leI

YES! That is a great version -- rousing. Thanks for that.
And you are right, Naples is the "wrong town." Fortunately or otherwise, it will soon be under water, with the rise of the oceans, and I have been thinking of buying up some tropical beachfront property on the outskirts of Sherbrooke.
