I had my 3 month appointment with Dr Connors this week. It was bittersweet as it was my last appointment with him as my doctor. Dr Connors is retiring at the end of March. It has been an amazing experience having him as my doctor for almost 17 years. He’s seen me through a lot over the years and while I wish him well in retirement, I’ll miss him for sure.

My next appointment is in 6 months, at which point I hope to be meeting my new oncologist. Dr Connors told me the last time we met that he’s going to ensure I get a young doctor because he knows I’ll be around for a long time – and I’ll need a young oncologist to see me through all those years. I love that man’s optimism! Until I get a new doctor, I can email or call Dr Connors with any questions or concerns on my health.

My scan and blood work showed that my cancer is at bay – which is all I can hope for. I feel good, other than the nagging sinus/ear infections that continue to persist. Its been 6 months of those and man, let me tell you – I WISH I could get over this! Rounds and rounds of antibiotics just don’t seem to be cutting it.

It’s been a good fall and now winter for the Brusse family. Noah has been playing Junior B hockey and going to the local high school in Princeton, BC. Both Eric and I have been there many times to visit Noah both in Princeton and on the road to in BC; Sicamous, Kelowna, Oliver, Oososyos and Kamloops. Its been a fun ride. Attached is a family picture from Princeton in October for “family weekend”.

Thanks for all your support!
