Life After Death?

For many years I have given thought to the question of life after death or simply what happens to the energy within the body upon death. I have questioned the modern belief in old religions as so many of the stories that make up the basis for these religions does not seem to fit with what we know about the universe today.

The seven days of creation, while a nice story, does not match up with what we now know about the age of the earth and the existence of life on the planet eons before man. However, it is also due to the knowledge garnered over the years that I can not fully believe in random evolution to explain the variety of life on the planet. Therefore, I do believe that there is a higher power that controlled the development of the world as we know it.

The most complex result of this creative endeavor is the human.The human brain.....all of our thoughts, emotions and behaviors are communication between neurons within our brains. Brainwaves are produced by synchronized electrical pulses from masses of neurons communicating with each other. So what happens to this electricity upon death? Does it simply cease to exist? Does it flow out into the world? (Perhaps this explains some of the paranormal?) Or does it move into a parallel universe? Heaven or hell?

Feb. 6, 2017 meteor - east camera





I was sitting and watching one of my Kdrama favorites when through my patio door I saw a bright flash of blue-green light and as it faded there was that glowing orb. How nice it would be if another Do Min-joon were to appear!

Getting A Respite From Treatment For Christmas

With A Little Help From My Friends


Recent scan shows tumor has decreased a little in size so we are optimistic despite abnormal cells still present in other areas. I will finish another round of chemo and then I get a break until after the new years! This is the best gift I could wish for with the exception of wishing that everyone around this beautiful world could enjoy good health and peace in the coming new year.

Even if you are not a K-drama fan now, I suggest you watch this delightful new drama. It can be viewed at Dramafever.com . Two of my favorite actors star as the Goblin and the Grim Reaper share a humorous bromance in this fun, fantasy drama.

Starting To Get In The Holiday Mood!

 Today was the first significant snowfall of this winter and looking out the window, seeing the city lights reflecting off that blanket of white, has put me in the holiday spirit. I got out my seasonal music and created a watch list of some holiday movies and now I am set!

Let It Snow!

Post Surgery Posting

Surgery on 10/26/16 went well (even with the 12 hours that it took) I was the model patient, giving all members of the team the opportunity to participate in the fun. I am told that the prep team "liked" the Pokemon(temporary tattoo on my neck) and gave me an appropriate haircut in thanks, Surgery team one was efficient, aligning the new incision up closely to the prior incision and almost met their time for completion of the procedure( a time out when BP shot up) and the second team was quick to adjust the planned laparoscopic to an open procedure to cut the time. Post surgical unit (despite some surprises) handled the care with efficiency that speaks well for the professional on the team and had me on my feet by Wednesday and home four days post surgery! And a big thank you to those of you who donate blood!!


Staples/stitches out last Friday and things look good. I get to rest for a couple of weeks before a scan and then plan out the future.

Dirty Words or Supporting A Rape Culture

"But here's the important thing that every outlet should be clear about when they report on it: This is not a story about lewd comments. Rather, this is a story about the Republican nominee for president talking, without compunction, about how he supports sexually assaulting women. Every headline must make this clear...Yes, his comments are lewd, but that's irrelevant. What matters is that Trump is talking as if he can do whatever he wants with women, whenever he wants, regardless of their consent. This is rape culture, as clear as day." - David S. Cohen

How much is a life worth....

Another surgery has been scheduled, it will be similar to the previous one but per the lead surgeon, they will be a little more aggressive this time. The surgery will be followed by a round of chemotherapy. Even as the mounting bills continue to give me stress, I am thankful for the excellent medical care that is accessible to me. The fight has been long and hard but I know that there are so many others who face a more difficult struggle and many who have even lost the fight. I thank my family, friends, medical team, and above all my God for making it this far in the fight.
