On June 3, 2013 I left Air Ops at the end of my shift. I haven't been back since. Ten radiation treatments, two back surgeries and many chemotherapy treatments later I'm going to give it a try. It certainly will be a bit of a challenge fending for myself. Carolyn has been my rock. She has seen me at my best and worst. Supported me through thick and thick.
I still have significant back aches I am trying to control. Trying to wean myself of medications while getting back to work will be a challenge but I happen to work at two of the best places I could imagine. Air Ops and my home District in Chipman. Awesome people to work, laugh, and sometimes cry with.
So on Sunday afternoon Carolyn will let me leave the nest. Damn she'll miss me!
Here I am in Georgia back a few years back just south of Waycross near the Okefenokee Swamp . So what/who is the first thing you noticed? THE HANDSOME FIREFIGHTER!, the sign, the pink ribbons, or the smoke in the background?
Have a great weekend everyone!

Aw Wayne, I have major goosebumps reading this.So happy for you. I'm sure there will be challenges, some of them may be major, but you have already proven to be 1 heck of a strong person so I'm sure you will handle it all with dignity.
