Victor R. Love here. I wanted to add a comment to Patty's last blog post, but then she "generously" gave me a whole blog post to myself, so here I am. It will be shorter and not as entertaining as the blog, but I'm not a journalism graduate.
Although as I understand the format, you start with something cute before you get into the dark, depressing meat of a blog post. So here's a new puppy thing for you. It's our former foster dog Cupcake, who was very insistent when she wanted me to pick her up.
Now that you've been filled with warm fuzzies, I'm gonna bring you back to reality. We have had some scary times recently, and they are about to get worse. "We didn't get it all" seems to be commonplace lately.
My reaction was,"Yeah, not a surprise," but my thought was"F****!!!!!!!!!" I don't have room for the rest of it.
Patty summed up the process, so I won't go there.
Let's just say that I'm bravely fighting cancer. I mean, we can say that, but it's bullshit. Terrified is better. Not about dying, that's easy. Walk into an Apple store and boom, there you go.
No, it's the recovery that scares me. Fortunately, I'm married to Wonder Woman. She takes me to the doctor, takes marvelous notes, explains them to me and makes a plan. She does all the work. I just hang around and occasionally grunt.
I also have Super Family who help and support me (and, most important for her, Bella). And, of course, all of you giving support too. I appreciate it. Thank you for all of your good wishes.
The only thing I don't have is my Waggie. That sucks.
But don't cry for me (I will refrain from writing "Argentina." I don't even know Argentina). I will just keep swimming.

You are a brave man, Victor Love. And, yes, you do have a brave, thoughtful and caring woman who will be there for you all the way. My prayers and love will continue to flow your way.
Hugs and lots of love to a very brave grunter. Sorry the news wasn't better. We're here for both of you.
Again, with the Wags mention. Did you not learn anything from the previous post?
The Millers and the entire Victor Love support network are hoping and praying for your comfort, strength, and return to health, Vic! With Patty at your side, you can do anything!
Oh Vic-y-poo. Your writing is perfect. Terrified. Brave. Just keep swimming. We love you and are praying for you.
Sending love and strength to two amazing people....❤
Thanks for the update,Vic. I can't imagine what you're going through but I'm glad you have Patty. If good thoughts from friends count toward wellness,I think you have this covered.
You covered it. Lovely. Recovery is the toughest part, but you got this. One moment, one thought at a time. My husband is going through some similar things, but his ailment is brain cancer. We live in the moment and, when a I say live, I mean that we immerse ourselves in the moment, sometimes painful, but lots of joys blanketing us. So it be for you and Patty. Much love and light for both of you :)
You really did hit the jackpot when you married Patty ! Sending lots of love and good wishes to both of you. You just keep on grunting until you beat this thing !
