I’m in Anchorage today, and last Friday I had surgery for what turned out to be an ovarian cancer. Luckily we got it early, though I have to wait for the pathology report to be sure. Anyway, the days here are a little shorter and the sun a little higher in the sky than in Fairbanks. Sunrise 4a:21 am and sunset at 11:41 pm, with temperatures (though I haven’t been out) in the high 70’s and sunny.
Back in Fairbanks, the sun rose at 2:59 this morning, and will set at 12:46 tomorrow morning. Latitude make a big difference his time of year! Fsirbsnks has reached its usual stste starte of warmer than Anchorage this time of year — it’s in the high 80’s.
(On the remote chance you haven’t figured it out, the new laptop has a mouse equivalent that is driving me crazy!)

I’m praying the tests come out clean for you. Any type of cancer is nasty and no fun to deal with. (It must have you a bit rattled, there’s never this many typos in your posts)

Good. Still praying for good results. 🙂
I’ll be praying for good test results and fast healing. Such news is scary.
Thanks. Won’t be sure until next week
My best friend from childhood is a 31 year survivor of ovarian cancer. I will be thinking of you.
So far they think it was still encapsulated and they got it all. But it was the size of a small cantaloupe! No wonder my insides weren’t working right!
Hi Sue Ann, my friend Alana sent me your way. Praying your tests are good! Enjoyed this post of yours. I’ve always wondered what it would be like to live in Alaska.
I think I dodged a bullet with that 1a progression. but the doctor wants chemo t be sure.
My good wishes to you from England. Make the best of every day.
So far mostly lack energy.
