Decided that the next song I’m going to try to learn for the musical targets is the can-can. It’s faster & has quicker movements than the songs I’ve done previously but has right at 50 notes, so could be done with a drum magazine without needing reloads.
Another roller coaster ride of a week for my wife. Her youngest sister died of the same cancer my wife has, and the funeral was Saturday in Houston. My wife was down there all week; I drove down Friday & came back Sunday. We didn’t expect the sister to go as fast as she did, as her cancer was found at Stage 3 less than three years ago, where my wife’s was already at Stage 4 when we found it more than four years ago. But the sister’s was just more aggressive & spread to her brain faster than my wife’s has. In the last ~4½ years, my wife has found out she has inoperable, terminal cancer, has taken a small chemo dose every 12 hours for over four years now, lost her father, lost her only uncle on that side of the family, lost our home builder, been hospitalized twice for a month or so, and now lost her sister. The last time she went to the hospital, I had to use our tractor to pull the ambulance up an ice-covered hill with her in the back. Getting tired of this crap, but at the same time am grateful to have had the extra time; more than the doctors sad we could expect.
