Congratulations on 1 year sober Happy Birthday @Blueroom and congratulations @TMAC on 900 days thatās amazing!!! Day 176 clean and sober today. Went to a specialist yesterday in regards to a small mass they found on my kidney when they did the MRI of my back. The doctor said heās 80% sure that itās cancer and will be scheduling surgery. He said that itās about a 1/2ā in diameter and that it looks like they caught it in time thank God. This will be the first major surgery that Iāve ever had so thatās scary but Iām still so grateful that they saw it and are going to do something in time. Have a great day I love you guys!!!

@Conor689908 Hi there Conor, thank you for the update. Iām sorry youāre struggling. Keep your head above the water, this will pass eventually. Youāre loved and missed 
Tuesday zoom was unusual you not being there winding me up 
@TMAC Congratulations on 900 days! I love that gratitude list! Itās so easy to forget what you have when itās difficult and/or youāre in pain. Nice selfie, youāre looking ripped! 
@Edmund Whoās that mini Chewbacca?? 
And is that mohawk your handiwork???
@Chiron 6 months!!! Whoop whoop! 
@Tomek Youāre lingually talented, Iām sure youāll find a way of journaling that would be helpful 
So are you using cyrillic alphabet for another language entirely, not Russian? If so, thatās cool (not the trust issue part, but your creativity 
)

Wow, thatās a lot to take in and unexpected. Can they do a biopsy or is it not feasible? I had a mass that they did a biopsy and knew it was cancer.
Youāre healthy and itās found early, Robā¦ keep a positive vibe.

So scary! Good, though, that you are looking into your health in every way. Catching it early, being sober- all positive! Sending many more good vibes your way.

Day 55. Iāve really fallen behind in this thread; thereās over 600 posts Iāve missed so hopefully Iāll get a chance to skim through to see what everyone has been up to. Working from home today so maybe Iāll have a chance to do some catching up. Dreading a doc appt on phone today to discuss some health issues and my doc has a way of making me feel at times like things are in my head because my mum died of cancer. Yeesh; people can still be anxious and have legitimate concerns. Anyways. After a few weeks of no improvement, I decided to advocate for myself because thereās been no improvement and itās starting to concern me a bit. Wish me luck.
Itās nice to be home without anyone else here since little guy is at school. Get some work done, then Iāll use some lieu time I have banked and slack off lol. Enjoy your day, sober family.

I donāt know Mike. A lifting partner who actually wants to lift is a rare thing. Iāve been through a lot of them. Trust meā¦ RARE! LOL. I would say if lift with you but kind of in a different state.
I like the idea of choice. I choose to not drink. I choose a better life. I choose to not let myself down. Drinking ALWAYS letās me down. I havenāt had a positive drinking experience since I was in my 20s. And Iām 60. Even then I was a train wreck. Cāmon @WCan. Choose better for you!

Yes, when I was a child I used to write in Hungarian but using cyrillic alphabet, so I could kept it in secret from my brother. Yeah, paranoia can boost your creativity big time
Now I will just hide the journal from my spouse and work on my trust issues.

Nothing like a good dog.
One morning awhile back I was reading my devotionals and I was in a really sad place and I was just thinking all I got really is me and you God. And I was really sad. At that very moment my dog Minnie, for some reason, got up off the the chair she was sitting on and came over to me and started nudging me like hey!!! What the fuck am I? chopped liver? Her timing, or was it Gods timing? Was so perfect and she was so right there for me. Iāll never ever forget that morning as long as I live.
I hope youāre having a great day today and wish you the best Sober Thanksgiving my friend.
