Today Harry and I had to get up at 4:30am. Some of you may know that my step dad, Chuck has Bladder Cancer. He has been fighting it for the past year. Today is his last chance and they are going to remove his bladder and prostate and then rebuilt his new bladder. They were taking him in at 6am and mom wanted us to be there to wish him luck. Also my aunt came the day before and stayed with us so she didn't have to drive much. So we got there at 5:30am and visited with Chuck until 7am when they took him into surgery. We waited in the waiting room for over eight hours as they preformed the surgery. Around 3:30pm they came out and said everything went as expected. They still have to check his lymph nodes for cancer but everything looked good. He was heading to ICU and we wouldn't be able to see him the rest of the night so Harry and I decided to head home. It was a long day and both of us were very tired. I am just glad that Chuck looks to be okay and will be home in two weeks.
