Morning.

Missed coming by here yesterday. Here I am today!

I've got a couple of small problems to fix on a website. I will do that today and tomorrow.

I also have to visit my BIL becuase Lord knows my wife won't. Later today we're having our annual Tree Trimming Party so I have to help getting ready for that. Really not feeling the party vibe today but I will put on my game face.

As far as my BIL is concerned, I found out they are now working on a Sarcoidosis prognosis (and not cancer). It is a disease characterized by the growth of tiny collections of inflammatory cells in your body — most commonly the lungs and lymph nodes. But it can also affect the eyes, skin, heart and other organs too. He was a garbage man for 30 years so something might have fucked him up along the way to do this.

Along with a shit load of blood work, they did a Bronchoscopy on Friday. It is a procedure that lets doctors look at your lungs and air passages. During bronchoscopy, a thin tube (bronchoscope) is passed through your nose or mouth, down your throat and into your lungs. Yikes! Next up (Monday or Tuesday) is a CT Guided Lung Biopsy. Doctors use a CT scan to guide a needle into your lung. They take a piece of your lung out and sent it to a lab for analysis. Fun? Wow! At least they seems to be making some progress.

That's it for me. Have a good one!
