Attitude Air Steps

I took one last breath before my air step, and then I was falling.  It was my first time to rappel with a M60 machine gun and I started to flip as the ground came up way too fast.  It was last time I made a hard landing carrying the M60, for I’ve been blessed with a “can do” attitude.  This week I learned my cancer has spread to my hip bones.  On a walk two nights ago with my wife MaryBeth, we stopped  under a Live Oak tree, our symbol of love, and I told her how we were starting a new chapter in my cancer journey, and I had no doubt we’d do it “well”.  Take an air step with me today.
