A Quick Update

A lot has been going on lately and I haven't had much time for anything but work. My sister got married on Sept 16th (Congratulations Sherene and Ben!) and it was a great wedding. The reception was at the Saskatoon Inn and it was steak and shrimp plate served. But the interesting part was they mixed the eating with the program. So we would eat our soup, and then there would be some entertainment like a couple that did a tango for everyone. Then we'd eat our salad and then people would go up and give advice to the couple. It was really cool and made for a great evening. I actually wrote a song for the event and sang it at the wedding. I wish it would have been videotaped because it went over pretty good and was supposedly funny.

Other than that it has been work, work, work. Things are very busy now with hiring people and attending events. I've been to Regina and back a few times last week already and will head back there at least twice more. I like my job but there is just a lot to do right now.

As for my medical condition things aren't looking too good. My platelets keep dropping down to 7,000. Last week I was in the hospital for three more days of IVIG treatments. Yesterday I went to Nuclear Medicine to get a test done to see if I have an auxillary spleen that is causing the trouble. (Yes, amazingly enough I could have two spleens!) Today I go for a meeting with the Specialist and I'm guessing we will talk about future options. I've decided to not play soccer this season and someone else is running the team. Now I just have to find something to fill my time...I'm thinking curling!
