Plans have changed
We had been looking forward to retiring 9/30 and hitting the road 10/5. But - upon Phyllis learning that Len had a sore on top of his head for approximately a year that was not healing, she insisted he have it checked.
We found out Tuesday it is skin cancer. More samples have now been sent out for biopsy. We will know in two weeks what the next step is. If only a simple procedure is warranted, we will be able to leave sometime after the first of the year. He will need follow up checkups every 6 months.
Fortunately, both our employers have kept us on when we notified them yesterday of the situation. We are bummed but thankful this was found now.
Here we are packed and ready to go, have said some good byes, etc but ...... hopefully in a few months it will be the right time for us.
