My Life Update

I'm going away to B.C. for a few days to the BC Tournament of Champions with the U13 boys Saskatchewan Provincial team. I leave early in the morning on Wed and won't be back until later on Monday. so here's a quick update on what's going on in my life:

1) I'm on TV again, but wasn't today. It will probably be tomorrow (Wednesday) on the news starting at 6:00pm. If it doesn't air on Wednesday then it will be Thursday. And that's on Shaw Cable Channel 10.
If anyone has cable (I don't) can you try and tape it for me? I'd like to see what I look like.

2) My surgery is still on for May 25th. Some of you may have heard that it was potentially going to be postponed. My platelet count has been fairly stable at around 50,000 for quite some time now so the Specialist thought we might want to wait. But we lowered my Prednisone dose from 15mg per day to 10 mg per day and after only 3 days of that my count dropped to 35,000. So the surgery is still on as the Specialist said (and I agree) that I shouldn't be on 15mg or even 10mg of Prednisone for a long period of time.

3) I want to write a whole post on this, but I just don't have time right now. (It's 1:11am and I leave for BC in 5 hours) On Sunday I went to see a presentation on Teen Challenge. For those who don't know it's a program that helps drug addicted men aged 18 and over to overcome their addiction. They have a documented 70% success rate compared to the 5% success rate of government programs. All because these men are introduced to Jesus and he is saving these men from their addiction. If anyone has the chance to go hear this men's choir, the presentation and testimonies of the men in the program you should definately go! I think they are coming to Moose Jaw and Swift Current yet so if you live around there I guarantee you will not be disappointed!

Ok, don't check back here for a while now because there won't be anything. But I'll have lots to post after my "business trip" to BC.
