The Regiment, oh the Regiment Cries
At the passing of our own Private Ken Barwise
The big fellow won the coveted MM
But he wanted it too for some other men
Ken, he fought the enemy hand to hand
Chasing them off of the no man's land
He carried back the precious machine gun
30 years of Service to Canada had begun
He never took the Lance Cpl's hooks
As Hellyer made each of his buddies one
He was happiest as a Private because
He could loudly speak his mind in fun and pun!
He's up there now with Big Jim Stone
And my buddy Machine Gun Bill
Bill Fischer was a PFL too
Both fought on that Korean Hill
Ken'll be there now with Greek Cattell
Many great war stories they all will tell
About how they sent the enemy to hell
Big Ken, Bill Fischer and John Cattell!

Author's Note: PFL – an imaginary tattoo said to be tattooed on some soldiers rear ends – Pte For Life – In the Queen's Own it was RFL (Rifleman for Life). We had John Cattell, WW2 and Korea, Baldy Baverstock WW2 and Korea, and Bill Fischer WW2 and Korea. These men did not want to be NCOs and the Regiments respected that right. Hellyer did not win out in every case. Ken and Bill were PPCLI during the Korean War; Baldy Baverstock served with the Gloucesters in Korea and was one of a few survivors who walked off the hill wounded; Greek Cattell was a Commando in WW2 and escaped twice from prisoner of war camps having killed many Germans. He went to Korea with our 2nd Battalion QOR of C in 1953 and I served with him in Germany and Calgary. I knew all three of these men personally – they were great old soldiers. They are part of Modern Canadian Military History. Thank you Vince, for writing part of their stories for posterity.

Last Post for Comrade
Private Kenneth Francis Barwise, MC, CD
Word has been received from Jose van Berkel that her beloved father and our comrade passed away this morning between 4 am and 5:30 am.
Kenneth died in the ICU unit in a Penticton hospital after undergoing surgery for colon cancer. The operation took place within a month of a surgical procedure that followed a heart attack.
Ken was one of the first to join the Canadian Army Special Force when it was formed in August, 1950 to help defend the Republic of Korea against incursion forces from North Korea.
He took his training with the 2nd Battalion; Princess Patricia's Canadian Light Infantry and sailed to Korea with the battalion in November of that year.
The strapping, 6'4" young soldier was well liked by virtually everyone who served with him.
In Korea he was assigned to a Vickers medium machinegun team as Number 3 on the gun, serving under Captain Andy Foulds of Vancouver. Captain Foulds passed away a couple of weeks ago.
Ken went into action with the Patricias in February 1951 while the battalion fought its way from positions near Yoju on the South Han River to the Imjin River on the west central front.
When in April the battalion was ordered to rush into positions on the west side of the Kapyong River valley to stem an enemy offensive Ken was temporarily assigned to D Company, which was then under command of Captain Wally Mills.
D Company held the largest feature in the battalion area, Hill 677, which forms a great shoulder on the far left side of the valley. He and his friend Lance Corporal Jimmy Wanniandi were given a tiny 2-inch mortar and positioned outside Captain Mills' slit trench command post.
The company was attacked after midnight of the night of April 23-24. Following an artillery barrage called onto the D Company positions Ken and Wanniandi were asked to reconnoitre the 11 platoon area that had been over-run by the attacking enemy.
Both men were attacked by enemy soldiers as they made their way down the slopes. Eye witnesses said Ken fought hand to hand with six of the enemy before he and Wanniandi made it back safely to their position.
Later Ken went with a counter attack platoon from C Company that was commanded by Lieutenant Whittaker. They swept the 11 platoon area and Ken retrieved the Vickers machinegun that had been manned by his comrades, Privates.
Ken is remembered carrying the heavy gun back up the hill on his shoulder, the coolant reservoir can bouncing along behind him. It was still connected to the gun by the coolant hose.
Ken was awarded the Military Medal for bravery in the field and he campaigned to have his friend Jimmy Wanniandi similarly recognized. It was not to be, however. Ken was decorated for bravery and Jimmy was overlooked, except by Ken and his comrades who cherished him.
After Korea Ken went on to serve with the Canadian Army for a period of 30 years. It was service that he cherished and badly missed following his retirement.
Ken became well known to Princes Patricia during her tenure as Colonel of the Regiment and by her successor, Countess Mountbatten of Burma. The Countess always sought him out at regimental reunions and annual general meetings of the PPCLI Association.
Ken missed meeting Canada's Governor General, Adrienne Clarkson when he was in Ottawa in 2003 to participate in the dedication and Consecration of the Monument to Canadian Fallen. It honours all Canadian who fell during the Korean War and on peacekeeping service in Korea.
Madame Clarkson was on a state visit to Arctic Circle nations and could not attend the service. Ken, did, however, meet with Canada's Prime Minister, Jean Chretien who noted almost with awe, "You are a really big guy!"
Shortly after that Ken lost his wife and not long down the line lost one leg to complications of diabetes, then had a heart attack and lost the other leg, then had another heart attack and simultaneously was diagnosed with colon cancer.
He did not get to meet with Madame Clarkson when she was appointed Colonel of the Regiment. She replaced Countess Mountbatten who was well into her 80's, widowed and in her view unable to give the job her all.
Ken was a kind man but not a shy man. His voice was heard at every PPCLI function. He did not shrink from authority of any kind.
He badgered superiors, always spoke up if he thought things were being mismanaged of could be handled better. He was powerful with his oratory and let the chips fall where they may.
"I guess that's why I retired as a private after 30 years of service," he quipped in 2000 when he was in Korea as one of 12 honoured Veteran guests of South Korean President Kim Dae-jung. "I was never one to curry favour with officers. I always did what I thought was right."
The late Danny Bordelaux, who retired as a warrant officer with the Canadian Intelligence Corps, served with the 1st Battalion of the PPCLI that replaced Ken's 2nd Battalion.
Danny's younger brother Gerald had been wounded in the head at the Battle of Kapyong in the same Hill 677 position where Ken had also been wounded. That was Danny's first meeting with Ken.
A few years later in Germany Danny was eating lunch in the mess hall when he was approached by several soldiers from a rival regiment. They ordered him in unkind words to get up and move so that they could have his table.
Danny was not a very big man but he was a tough, no nonsense fellow. He refused. They took hold of him to make him give up the table.
Suddenly huge Ken Barwise was among them. He grabbed one of them by the neck and the back of his belt and pitched him through the open window like a bale of hay.
"You were saying?" he asked the rest of them. Danny finished his lunch without moving. They all retreated.
Unforgettable because of his size, strength, audacity and warmth Ken became a legend within his regiment.
At its 80th reunion in 1994 a group of Veterans were walking toward the drill hall where the refreshment bars were set up. There was a painting of a PPCLI shoulder badge above the door. It measured about eight feet wide by a yard high.
One of the Veterans stopped the others, pointed up at it.
"Hey look," he called out. "There's Barwise's shoulder flash!"
He was well known even by soldiers and Veterans who had never met him. He was a legend in his own time.
It didn't put food on the table and he was hard pressed to care for his family and do all of the things he wanted to do for them. At that regimental reunion he had driven there in his pickup truck and slept on the truck bed to save money.
He also made a meal from the cookies and coffee available in the morning reception for Countess Mountbatten. She spent a long time chatting with him.
He once told friends on his 2000 trip to Korea that along with his Military Medal he received a small honorarium from the Queen. Every month he received less than $20 in honour of his brave and faithful service to the crown. He appreciated it, was proud of it.
Now he joins many, many comrades from his battalion who left the world before he did.
He died peacefully in his sleep, his daughter Jose said.
If so, it would be the first time he ever did anything big without making a lot of noise about it. One must assume that it was a journey Ken finally wanted to make.

Review by Rob
McEWAN'S SAYS…
You'll have heard that looks can be deceiving. Well, McEwan's Champion Ale is Exhibit A in proving that statement true.
First impressions are of a sweet and fruity beer. But this delicate taste belies its power. As you fully get to know its intense flavours you'll realise this is a very strong, dark and traditional ale.
William McEwan would have been proud of it.
Champion Ale is a true highlight in the McEwan's range. It possesses a rich, strong flavour with a uniquely sweet and fruity character it's distinctly smooth finish makes it the ultimate Scottish ale.
Initial thoughts are it's deep dark mahogany colour, with a large head reminisce to a smooth bitter. Smells of red fruits. Taste quite a complex depth to this one, full bodied, good character, hint of chocolate not akin to a stout or porter, but more refined, the smooth body pulls it back in to a fruity beer. The fruit is finally toned down by the strength, a respectable 7.3% ensures this is a serious drink to contend with.
This one ticks all my personal preferences. This is a very good beer and one I'd recommend, I won't go as far as to say it's the perfect beer in my eyes, I can think of a couple that are higher up the lap time list. But this beer definitely gets onto the list and that is very high praise indeed.

There's a popular saying I've heard a long time ago. I really can't remember how to put it now but I know it goes with saying "Thank You and I'm Sorry" are two of the hardest words to tell a person. I know I should have written this post a while ago, so first, I'm sorry for writing this post a little too late. I hope my apology is accepted for that.
Second, I'm sorry for discontinued consistency in putting up posts here. Words can never describe how sorry I am. I feel I need to meet everyone individually in order to show how sincerely sorry I am for being such a lazyass.
Third, schooling has really been what it's always been – highly stressful. I can't seem to take a hold of myself. I'm just always where I don't think I should be at very important times.
I have offended a lot of people lately, and I know I'll keep hurting them until this is all over. So, I'm taking this time out to plead with anyone I have offended and still going to offend to bear with me. The days will pass on very soon, and we'll be as lovely as we've always been before. Forgive me now.
Lastly, I want to thank those that has never stopped by to check on this blog. To my likers, I like you too. To my readers, lots of kisses to you 😘. To my sharers, big ups to you too 🙌.
I need to continue reading this note now. I should probably put up a fine article real soon. See you soon. Thanks for reading.
Still yours forever,
One Micaiah

CTC: Roasted Cro on menu
Ray Forget and son-in-law Marc Crawford, who will be roasted next week, all in good fun of course. Rachel Faber/Cornwall Standard-Freeholder

The Children's Treatment Centre Dinner and Roast of Marc Crawford, set to be held Aug. 30 at the Best Western in Cornwall, has added two roasters.
Steve Dryden, the senior managing editor of hockey for TSN, and Brian Burke, the president of hockey operations for the Calgary Flames, will be coming into town to roast their former colleague and friend.
"He knows a lot about me," said Crawford of Burke, who hired him as the assistant coach of the Vancouver Canucks farm team around 30 years ago.
"He was the most supportive boss I've ever had, but also a vicious, vicious man," joked Crawford.
Crawford is a Belleville native and is now the associate coach of the Ottawa Senators, as well as a former hockey player in the OHL, AHL, CHL, and NHL. He played three seasons with the Cornwall Royals and he and his wife, Helene, live in Cornwall during the off-season.
"I'm certainly a big supporter of the centre . . . they do really great work here in the local community. I want to be that kind of citizen, and it's nice knowing that even this small thing is going to help," said Crawford.
Also new on the list of roasters, are Crawford's two 20-something children — Dylan, a video coach for the Ottawa Senators farm team in Belleville, and Kaitlyn, an aspiring sex therapist currently studying at UBC — who he assures won't hold back during their time on stage.
It costs $500,000 per year to keep the centre's programs going, so Crawford said he's happy to take on some mild discomfort in the name of a good cause. They call him Cro, and it will be a well roasted version next Wednesday.
"It feels very good to be back. Cornwall does a great job of backing it," he said of the CTC.
According to Angelo Towndale, the centre's project co-ordinator, this is the first time in more than 20 years that all 272 tickets to the event sold out in just 48 hours.
"That's because I owe so much money to people in town, they all want to find me," laughed Crawford.

Minorities and the Issue of Gay Marriage.
There are many important issues discussed in public policy today. One of these issues is same-sex marriage. This is an important issue because it deals with a relatively large minority of the United States. This issue is put into many different lights including morals, family values and religion; and those of equality, constitutionality, and right to privacy.
Those who oppose the same sex marriage are pointing out that the opposition recognizes that this debate is not about the 'rightness' or 'wrongness' of homosexuality. they argue that there exists reasonable disagreement as to whether or not homosexuality is morally acceptable. They say the marriage is a public institution because it brings together men and women for the reproduction of the human race, and keeps them together to raise the children produced by their union. Future generations are fundamental to the survival of society. The quality of their nurture is directly related to the quality of life within society. Bonding the man and woman whose sexual union produces a child to one another and to that child is the most efficient way of insuring that nurture. Opposite-sex relationships are the only type capable of producing children through natural intercourse, and the only ones assured of providing children with both a mother and a father. Affirming only opposite-sex relationships as marriage thus makes perfect sense. Also they point that social science has shown that children raised by their own biological mother and father, committed to one another in a lifelong marriage, are happier, healthier, and more prosperous than children in any other households. Therefore same sex marriage should be not legalized in order to protect future generations.
On the other hand, proponents of the same sex marriage argue that same-sex couples are similarly situated to different-sex couples in terms of their economic status, their family decisions, their...

Adidas Cloudfoam Super Skate History

Commissioning a machine at a customer's facility is the decisive moment: Are extensive corrections needed, or does everything go as planned? To reduce the risk and effort associated with the actual commissioning, virtually commissioning the machine using PLCSIM Advanced in the TIA Portal offers an efficient alternative. This approach even makes it possible to simulate and optimize the interaction between individual components of entire production lines in a virtual environment.
Playing it safe
As a general rule, the later an error is found, the more expensive it is to eliminate. For machine builders and plant operators, this means that it's especially important to start troubleshooting as early as possible in the development process. The objective is to minimize the number of errors that occur during the actual commissioning and ensure that no faults occur. This is now possible thanks to virtual commissioning in the project planning and engineering phases. During this process, planning data like the control program or visualization are validated and optimized in a virtual environment. This approach saves both time and money.
TIA Portal integration
With STEP 7 and the Totally Integrated Automation Portal (TIA Portal), you can use PLCSIM Advanced to simulate and validate controller functionalities without the actual controllers. In addition, interfaces can be used to simulate interactions with the other components of cells or lines. Our highlight video shows you all the benefits.
From a controller to an individual machine to extensive production lines: Our range of virtual commissioning solutions enables machine builders and plant operators to achieve the desired results faster and more reliably.

The virtual commissioning of controllers, HMIs, machines, and production lines decreases time and costs, reduces the risk of errors and defects, and achieves the desired results more quickly. With TIA and the TIA Portal as the engineering framework, you have access to all the relevant data on your hardware and the software tools that will enable you to develop, simulate, and optimize in a completely virtual environment.

FINALLY! It's all over, I can finally say that I am completely done school. Summer is around the corner and I am really excited to see what this summer has in store for me. To celebrate the end of the school year, we decided to have a lunch date with our classmates at a delicious restaurant. There I am,
with my hand on my chin. I sure know how to take really awkward photos!
Like I mentioned earlier, I am really excited for this summer. So far I have two trips planned. The first one being Cuba, and the second trip being a smaller one, Toronto. I am super stoked for Cuba, last summer I got the chance to go to Dominican Republic and it was beautiful so I am hoping Cuba will be as beautiful and fun!
As for now, I recently started my own Virtual Assistant company. I'm not sure if I mentioned this before, but I graduated from the Marketing program in 2011 and this spring I will be graduating from the Office Procedures program. I am ready to finally put all the skills I have learned to use. So far everything is going smoothly, I already have two clients that I manage, and that is the reason why I haven't been blogging much! Now that I have my schedule under control, I will be able to get back on track and blog more!
If you are interested in knowing more about my VA company and what services I have to offer, make sure to check out my website at http://syassin3.wix.com/suadyassin
QOTD: What are your plans for this summer? Any exciting plans? Let me know!

Directed by Anders Walter and starring Madison Wolfe as story protagonist Barbara Thorson and Zoe Saldana as her school therapist, I Kill Giants has realeased a clip of the much anticipated film. Based on the graphic novel of the same name by comic creators Joe Kelly and Ken Niimura and published by Image Comics, the film tells the story of Barbara, a teenage girl who escapes the realitites of school and family life by retreating into her own magical world of titans and giants. With help from her friend Sophia (Sydney Wade) and the school therapist, Barbara learns how to battle the giants in her real life - bullies at school, her sister (Imogen Poots), and her difficult home life.
The clip shows Barbara and her friend Sohpia roaming through the forest as the former tries to reveal the giants to her friend. Uncomfortable and worried about getting in trouble, Sophia tries to convince Barbara there's no such thing as giants to which she replies, "then why are you sweating." To watch the full clip, see below.
I Kill Giants (9781607069850, $19.99) will make its world premiere on September 9 at the Toronto International Film Festival.

Last week I visited the exhibition of Helmut Newton in Le Grand Palais in Paris.
Helmut Newton is a great photographer, and I admire his work and style over the years.
the exhibition was a bit of a disappointment to me... until the moment
that we finally could enter the small video room.
The documentary, filmed by his wife June, made the difference. In my
point of view, one had better FIRST shown the documentary, and next lead
the visitors to the photos.
It's very interesting to see and hear
what drives him, how he watches and observes, and what kind of person he
seems to be. It makes that you can look at his photos from a different
point of view.
Le Grand Palais itself is a beautiful site for photographers, and I
couldn't resist to capture (simply with my iPhone) what I saw myself... I saw scenes of a movie
that has been never shot.
Nothing in comparison with Newton of course, but nevertheless... I like them.

- crazybabyinlove
- 8 years ago
- Wedding: November 2010
Hello hive!
I have never really posted here, however I am in need of advice on a letter to my parents, preferably from other parents, particularly who are religious. There is a bit of personal details in this letter. Background story: My father is the pastor at our local Christian church. Neither of my parents believe in sex before marriage or even spending the night at his house before we are married. Obviously both are occurring in my place. I pay rent to my parents and have for YEARS now. HOWEVER I am a wedding and event planner, so when I have a late event, I sleep at his house (I live at least 30 minutes south from all my events and he is usually 10 minutes away). He also does not drive, so I need to be there to help him out once in a blue moon (even though he does GREAT with public transportation). My parents love him and love me and love us together, but they won't back off. We are getting married April 8th, 2011. HOWEVER, my parents basically told me I need to move out and live with him since I cannot obey their rules. BUT I PAY RENT!!!!!!!! I love him and I want to marry him NOW but I also want my princess day and I don't want to live with him for the next 9 months if I am not his wife. So I wrote a response letter to my parents that I plan to email them today. Please read and advise your advise. I do not want to loose my parents either. If you need further information on the "story" feel free to ask. Thanks for your time and attention to this insanity!
For the first time on Monday, I saw you both in another light. You say that I do not respect you but you are both still treating me like I am five years old instead of seeing me as an independent adult who is about to turn 24 years old, get married and begin her own family. You have yet to learn to respect me. There are so many things and such a bigger picture happening right now around you and you are totally missing it all. Take sister B – she is going down the same path I was. I was a mistake – but if it happens to sister B, it is totally your fault because now you have the experience and you are not learning from it. She is borderline depressed and she is eating herself to death. In two years she has easily gained 50 pounds. She sits at home and does nothing all day and eats more than is necessary. And then she is rewarded with a new camera. She is NOT paying rent (to my knowledge) and if she is, she isn't paying enough to motivate her and get her moving. Do you realize that with me, it is ALWAYS something??? I eat too much, I disappoint you. I don't practice my music, I disappoint you. I date a girl, I disappoint you. I get raped and somehow I still disappoint you. I don't go to college, I disappoint you. I fall in love with and dedicate my time to helping an alcoholic and I disappoint you. Can you see the bigger picture? I am a certified wedding specialist (on my own – no financial help from you – no acknowledgement or reward from you). I am an event coordinator within a successful company. I make decent money and have an emergency savings fund of $8500. I continue to meet all my bills and now I am crazy in love with an amazing guy and engaged to be married and I still somehow, amidst all of this, am disappointing you. My sin is my sin. I may agree with a lot of things you say and believe, but I am still my own person and I make my own choices. I also deal with my own sin. My life is the best it has been because of Erik. He sees my flaws and my areas of weakness and he does not put me down. He advises me on how to grow and gives me the room to do so. For the first time in my life, I fit in. With this family, there was never a sense of belonging except with grandma. She is the only one who listens, does not talk over me, does not judge me and does not expect me to listen to her advice. She knows they are my mistakes to learn from, and she will be there to pick up the pieces. You guys did a great job and I love you with my whole heart. But you have never been able to listen to me or hold a real conversation with me or really understand what is going on. You say that I don't know how to communicate but I have learned NOT to because you never let me say my peace. I have always felt like an outsider looking in to my own family. Do you know how many nights I cried myself to sleep?? Do you know how depressed and how obese I felt my entire life?? Do you know how much it sucked and how much it continues to suck that I am addicted to food and I cannot just stop eating because I need food to survive!? Do you know how seriously I got down on my knees and begged God in tears to take me home and out of the physical pain of this body? You never asked why I blow up. You just blew up back. You just dished out punishments and rules instead of seeing if there was a bigger picture that you were somehow missing. You never considered how unhappy I was and what you could do to help. You are trying to avoid a relationship with me similar to that of dad and grandma cookie's and yet you are pushing me there. This is supposed to be the happiest time of my life and yet you are making it miserable. The only person who is supposed to be happier than me and prouder than me, are the two of you. And ironically you are the two attempting to ruin my day. You are not enjoying the moment and it will pass you by. I have dreamt since I was a little girl of my white cinderalla dress, my yellow rose bouquet, my daddy walking me down the aisle, the tears on my mommy's face, the love of my sisters to their new brother, my father daughter first dance, my fairytale wedding. Now it feels more like a funeral. You have presented me with the option to move in with fiancée or stay at home but there is truly no more in between. If I stay at home, I am going to be miserable because frankly I don't like either one of you right now, my family is lazy and there is never anything to do at our house and I do not want to be in that pattern anymore. On top of it, my schedule and Erik's are so opposite right now that I will never see him and I am not okay with that. Or I can move in with him and begin our lives together now. I love him and he loves me. So we are both okay with that. But we do not want to truly live together 100% and not be married. So now, I have to get married in the courts. At which point, doing the wedding later is stupid and a waste of money. And if I get married in the courts, I'll save a crap load of money sure, but I'll also never forgive myself. For the first time in my life this is a time that it truly can be all about me and I do not want to deprive myself of that day. We called his parents to see what they would say about everything. His dad said for me to move in. If we love each other, then that should be our priority and all the challenges and financial issues we may face will fall into place. The funny thing is, my parents, who claim they love me and they love him, have "doomed us" from the start. Do you realize, dad, how many times it has come out of your mouth that we would not make it until april 8th? Do you realize how that hurts me? And in front of sister B's best friend you said it like it was funny. If you think about it, this goes back to the no respect for me issue. You know, you told me the biggest reason I could not run a youth group within our church is because I am not an example. But you never saw the bigger picture. First, sister B asked and you said yes. But you never gave anyone else an opportunity to want to do it. Ironically, you say that I am not an example but there are so many things you say every Sunday behind the pulpit and are completely opposite of those lessons at home. You never thought that I am trying to build a stronger and better relationship with God, for myself and for my marriage and this was a responsibility I could take on to help strengthen my biblical mind. You never thought that I've screwed up so much in my life time that I have a ton of life lessons to teach these kids. You get frustrated because I get defensive and walk away, but you never hear my side. You call me selfish, but we all have our selfish tendencies and I think I've spent a good part of my life putting others first. Even with my own wedding, I went above and beyond to find dresses the girls were comfortable in, that I liked that did not cost them a fortune and that they'd be willing to reuse. I wasn't even in love with the dresses they bought, but they were and they would work if they had to, so I stepped back. Sorry, but that's a pretty selfless move. Do you realize when I sleep at fiancées, even if it's only one night a week, that our relationship (yours and mine) is the best it is because we have space? Do you realize the only reason you want me to pick or choose is because it looks bad on you? EVERYONE KNOWS ALREADY! And if I stop doing it, they're not going to notice or care. What about my best friend? She had TWO babies out of wed-lock. Don't you think her dad was hurt and disappointed and embarrassed that it was physically obvious to everyone? But he loves those girls to death. He adores my best friend and he knows it was her sin to have. Back off. If you really want me to move out and move in with fiancée, I am happy to do so. And we will get married in a court, alone, just the two of us, and dad will loose the opportunity to give away his little girl. And my heart will break in a million pieces and we will all regret it for our entire life and it will just be the beginning of the death of our relationship (yours and mine). At this moment, I choose to stay at our house. But I am sleeping there only. And I honestly will probably not even be home before you are asleep. And I will not be happy there. And odds are that one day, I will snap. And it will probably be before April 8th, because every time I think the storm is over, you wave your hands and create another one. But for the moment, I am going to attempt to gain my composure. For the moment, I am going to be selfish (FINALLY!). I WANT TO BE A PRINCESS. AND I WANT MY PRINCESS DAY. And I am going to be selfish to get what I want. But DO NOT pretend like nothing happened. DO NOT talk to me about passports and headaches and small talk like everything is okay, because everything is NOT okay. I do not need your help. It has always and will always continue to be appreciated. But you cannot practically kick me out and a few hours later ask me if I have a headache, and the next day tell me about cruising with the family. I am an adult and I can run my own life. I am paying rent to you and a tenant I truly am. I will come and go as I please. I will obey the rule that you have put on me to sleep there every night, as long as I can stand to do so. And when I cannot stand it anymore, I will get married without you. I know that you are sitting there thinking that I am dramatic. But this is what you have driven me to. This is how badly you have hurt me. And I don't know what's going to happen on Saturday nights. Maybe occasionally fiancée will sleep in my bed and I will sleep on the couch. Or maybe we will find another church that we can attend together without complications of a two hour bus ride. I am not going to drive up there, pick him up to drive back down here for church to drive back up there to take him home, to drive back down here to sleep at your house. I know he will do it, but I'd rather find another church up there so I can drive to him and we can go to church and then I can return later in the evening. That is my decision to make with my future husband. I love you. There is nowhere in this letter I am saying I don't. But you have hurt me in ways I hope I NEVER hurt my kids. You have taken away all the joys and significance of my wedding, and now I get to decide what I want to do that I will be able to live with for the rest of my life. And this is about fiancée and I ONLY. I am ready to change my life. And I only have room for those who are willing to give me the space to grow. YOU have finally disappointed ME and I have no desire to be a part of the disappointments any longer.

Hi, I'm home for a few hours to sleep, shower, etc. I decided not to go to work today after Mathew continually broke down sobbing whenever I mentioned I would be working today.
I can't say that things are going fabulously either. Mathew was put in an acute care room with 3 other patients, in a room right across from the nurse's station. The acute care basically means palliative care. The three other patients are much, much older than Mathew. In the last stages of cancer it can be hard to tell someone's age but I wouldn't guess under 60 for any of them. One gentleman was discharged today as he has a brain tumour and nothing else can be done for him. The second fellow is definitely palliative and the third individual never talks and doesn't have any visitors so I don't know his story.
It never crossed my mind before that in the hospital, men room with men and women room with other women. It makes sense and this is how it was explained to us that Mathew ended up in acute care, which is NOT where he needs to be. The gentleman in the next bed, the one who was offered palliative care, started making loud whispering noises shortly after our arrival so in due course I listened. To my horror he was whispering, "please please please PLEASE please please shut the fuck up!". This was anytime either Mathew or the other chatty fellow spoke up. The patient who was released today has a salty tongue something that Mathew noted. In fact, during one stressful time for Mathew he swore himself pointing out that I couldn't ask him not to since everyone else in there swore. *sigh*…..
Several times through the night I mentioned to the nurses when the neighbour starting repeating his mantra and thankfully, they further sedated him. I think he just wanted to sleep and is having trouble with that. He is also on heavy pain medication and the nurses attributed his refrain to medicine-induced ramblings. His sister kindly offered us some home made Mediterranean soup.
Mathew's bed is in a very squished corner. His suitcase are stacked against the wall and my chair abuts the same wall and almost the bed as well. The back end of the chair hangs into the doorway to the ward. The other side of the bed has barely enough room for a chair. There is no room and it is all elbows and knees and other things getting poked and jabbed. Mathew's IV pole travels with him to the washroom so we have to unplug it from the wall and kind of jiggle it through the maze beside his bed.
Chemotherapy started late this morning. He is also getting a steroid throughout the week to help with nausea and another medication called Mesna. This drug protects the bladder from one of the chemo drugs that could otherwise damage the bladder. Saline solution is also flushing through his body to aid all those drugs through so he must visit the bathroom every 2 hours or so around the clock to keep his bladder functioning. He did not want the chemo today and had another sobbing breakdown poor guy. He started to feel nauseous soon after so the struggle to get him to eat and drink begins.
The food brought to him so far has sat untouched. It's not terribly appealing to begin with but he is pickier than I thought – we are accustomed to our eating quirks in this house. Mathew doesn't like toast, most cereal (or really, cereal at all), oatmeal, orange juice… not coffee or tea or the other normal trappings adults eat. John brought in a Mac-A-Beef that Nana makes (the kids' favourite) and it can be heated up in the microwave on the oncology floor.
Okay, well I must rest a bit before heading back. I hate seeing him in there as much as he hates being there.

Congratulations to the Panthers who pounded Memorial today 115-85 to move to 12-6 on the AUS season and completed their home schedule at 10 wins, 1 loss. Another impressive home record for the Panthers, who over the past 3 seasons are 26-4 at home in Charlottetown. Conversely, on the road – with 2 games remaining this season away from Charlottetown – the Panthers have a regular season record of 12-16 plus 1-2 at the AUS tournament for an overall record of 13-18 in AUS regular season and tournament games played away from home. UPEI is presently tied for first place in the standings, with strong hopes to end a 13 year drought without an AUS championship, having last won the event in 2002-03.
Today's dominating effort over the Seahawks capped a season in which not one UPEI player fouled out of a game in Charlottetown and in every game except for one (first regular season home game vs. X), opponents were whistled for more fouls than the Panthers. Including that X game on opening night in November, the cumulative foul counts were Opponents 211, UPEI 156 highlighted by: Memorial today (21-11), loss to Dal (23-13), Acadia (25-10), Acadia (20-17, 5 of those fouls occurred late when UPEI was up 20). Conversely, on the road, foul counts were virtually even across all their games thus far.
In 2014-15, UPEI played 10 home games, going 9-1 in Charlottetown, and cumulative foul counts were Opponents 211, UPEI 144. Some game-specific foul counts to highlight: X (19-7), Acadia (22-11), Memorial (22-10), Dalhousie (32-18 and 22-13 on consecutive nights), Cape Breton (32-15 and 26-14 on consecutive nights). In 8 of the 10 games played, UPEI had fewer fouls called than opponents – the 2 games they didn't, foul counts were 14-15 & 19-20. Similar to this season, road foul counts were relatively even.
In 2013-14, Panthers went 7-2 at home and cumulative foul counts in those games were Opponents 182, UPEI 148.
Over the past 3 seasons (that's only as far back as this particular piece of fact-based research goes), the cumulative foul counts in Charlottetown are Opponents 604, Panthers 448.
Having watched multiple UPEI games both at home and on the road, 6'2″ Tyler Scott is as explosive a scorer as there is in the AUS and 6'6″ Brad States is the most athletic, explosive paint-area player in the conference. Both are very likely to be my choices for AUS First Team all-star status which we plan to publish in the coming days. Panthers play an exciting, up tempo brand of basketball and have several weapons including 6'1″ Lorenzo Parker who had 28 points today and is a knock-down shooter when going well. Panthers are deserving of a top 3-4 placing in the AUS and are among the favorites to win in Halifax.
Coach Tim Kendrick has brought this program back to prominence quickly although Panthers have yet to make it to the Nationals stage, losing the past 2 seasons in the AUS semi-finals to Saint Mary's Huskies.
Panthers, who now are tied with Dalhousie atop the AUS standings, each with 34 points, have two road games remaining including a showdown at Dalhousie this coming Saturday in Halifax (4 point game) before closing the regular season at UNB in another 4 point game in two weeks.
AUS Standings (including all games through Sunday)
Dalhousie 12-5, 34 pts. 3 games and 12 pts. left: at SMU (4), UPEI (4), at CBU (4)
UPEI 12-6, 34 pts. 2 games and 8 pts. left: at Dal (4), at UNB (4)
UNB 10-7, 28 pts. 3 games and 12 pts left: at Aca (4), PEI (4), ACA (4)
Acadia 10-7, 24 pts. 3 games and 12 pts left: UNB (4), SMU (4) at UNB (4)
Saint Mary's 8-8, 22 pts. 4 games & 14 pts. left: at X (4), DAL, at Aca (4), at CBU (4)
Cape Breton 7-10, 18 pts. 3 games & 12 pts left: at X, DAL (4), SMU (4)
Memorial 6-12, 14 pts. 2 games and 8 pts. left: X 2 x (4)
St. FX 3-13, 6 pts. 4 games and 14 pts. left: SMU (4), CBU, at MUN 2 x (4).
Next games in the AUS:
Wednesday: Dalhousie at Saint Mary's (4 point game)
Friday: Saint Mary's at St. FX (4 point game – make up game postponed twice by weather)
UNB at Acadia (4 point game).

A third of all UK private rented sector tenants believe they will never own a house
by Gary Whittaker
Over the last few years, the belief that people only rent a house because they cannot afford to buy their own has started to dwindle, as an increasing number of young people opt to live in a rented home as a life choice.
However, while this has become more prominent, a new study has found that there are still many people who are renting not because they want to, but because they cannot raise enough of a deposit to be able to get themselves a mortgage.
According to a survey carried out by CoCompare Mortgages, some 11 per cent of people who live in rented accommodation at the moment said they were doing so because of the fact they were not able to obtain a mortgage to get themselves a property.
And when it comes to trying to get onto the ladder in the future, as many as 31 per cent of tenants said they feel like they will never be able to raise the required funds to allow them to afford to do so.
"Our research reveals that half of all tenants are in rental accommodation because they can't afford to buy their own home. It now looks like many have given up all hope of ever owning a home and, for some, the changes to buy to let regulations are likely to make renting more expensive. In turn, that makes saving for a mortgage even harder," said Matt Sanders from GoCompare Mortgages.
The study also looked at the demographics of people who are renting properties in the UK at present, and discovered that the most prominent group in the sector at the moment are single people, making up 39 per cent of tenancies. This was compared to 28 per cent made up by families, and couples, who account for 23 per cent.

Seasonal business is just beginning to pick up around here, though most of the recently reserved dates are for later this month and into next. I did get offshore Saturday, 10/10 with long-time customers Jerry and Barb Rudan, from Wisconsin. We headed out of New Pass to about 18 miles, but it was slow going heading out in sloppy seas. Predictions were for one-footers, and it did eventually calm to about that, but the trip out was definitely not that calm. We used live shrimp to catch a lot of different fish but many of our catches were frustratingly just short of keeper-size. We released red groupers that were as little as one eighth of an inch short of legal. The same was true of many yellowtails and mangrove snapper. Triggerfish were abundant and would have been keepers prior to the regulation change, which now demands 14-inch minimum, so we released those too, along with lots of ladyfish. On the bright side, we did manage to catch a mess of keeper-sized snapper toomangs, lanes and yellowtail, as well as Spanish mackerel.
David Koenigsmark, son Adam, and father-in-law, Hubert, fished offshore with me Thursday, 10/15. We had a full-day so we headed out 37 miles west of New Pass to 74 feet. David had fished with me this summer, but we were bayside to accommodate his younger son. This time, he wanted his fourteen-year old son to have some offshore adventure. We caught a variety of fish, some of them pretty good size, which included a 34 inch king mackerel, a 28 inch king, whose tail was bitten off as Adam reeled him in by a huge barracuda, a 3 ½ foot sharpnose shark, a very large stingray, and an 8-pound bonito. We kept the kingfish and released the shark, stingray and bonito. We also caught some good table-farelane snapper, mangrove snapper and yellowtail snapperall keeper-sized, though we released all the lanes and a few mangs, as we already had plenty of fish, and also released lots of grouper shorts. At one point, we spotted about fifteen large mahi-mahi, right beside the boatwe had just arrived and werent rigged up yet, and they spooked and swam off.
Sunday morning, 10/18, I had planned to fish offshore with Dan Wampler, son, Barry, and eleven-year-old grandson, Max. The weather, however, had other ideas, as our first real cool-front came through the area, bringing not only much cooler temperatures, but also stiff winds and rough seas offshore. Dan and family decided to brave the cold morning temps and fish in the calmer waters of the bay. We stayed as sheltered from the wind as possible, and used live shrimp along the mangrove shoreline to catch five keeper sand bream and nine keeper mangrove snapper. We released small sheepshead and two small snook.
As the winds continued to be strong and seas rough offshore on Monday, Chester Yanik, son Mark, and friends Jim Basara and Tom Murphey also swapped their offshore plans for two days of inshore fishing in Estero Bay. Monday, we caught a dozen keeper-mangrove snapper out of twenty-five total mangs, and four keeper-sheepshead out of a bunch of sheepies caught. We released the smaller snapper and sheepshead, along with a 16-inch snook. We were fishing with shrimp and small bait- fish along the shoreline, wherever were able to stay somewhat sheltered from the winds.
Tuesday, the same group caught a bunch of trout--about 30 throw-backs measuring 14-15 inches--and they kept three nice trout that were 16 inches, along with keeper mangrove snapper. We released four redfish to 17 inches, an Atlantic spadefish, and a 3 1/2-foot bonnethead shark. We fished mostly in areas behind Ft. Myers Beach, using live shrimp and popping corks for the trout and reds.
The photo shown is of angler Mike Page, with an 18-inch sheepshead, caught on shrimp on a recent trip.

Bazaar Café occupies a 90-year-old Western-style building which used to be the home of a missionary close to Doshisha University. Sadly, it is only open Thursdays, Fridays and Saturdays. I think that my former co-worker raved about this place in a conversation that we had about five, six years ago. There is plenty of greenery surrounding the café which makes one think that he is in the countryside.
at the gate
the path to the entrance
the deck area (the café staff built it!)
the entrance…please change from your shoes to slippers or go barefoot because shoes aren't allowed in here (for a more comfortable, at-home stay).
The day that I went in late April of this year, the place was bustling (and hot) from a bazaar (fitting!) held at the time; after everyone left in the early evening, it was so peaceful.
the counter with the menu written above
There are books and comics available for the customers.
The 日替わりワンプレートhigawari wan pureeto (daily one-plate meal) is a deal for ¥500; the cuisine changes everyday (Thursdays = Brazilian, Fridays = Filipino and Saturdays = Thai) and is even made by someone from the country that it represents.
I went the day that they served Thai cuisine: タイ風やきそばTai-fuu yakisoba (Thai-style fried noodles).
Since I was planning to stay for awhile, I ordered a アイスキャラメルオーレaisu kyarameru oore (iced caramel au lait), ¥400, too.
The bazaar ended soon after I arrived and I worked on some things in the middle of all the clean-up. With the cool, refreshing breeze coming through the open café, I ended up staying long enough to finish my drink and order another one, hot this time.
ショコラオーレshokola oore (chocolat au lait), ¥400
The salad and the soup (わかめスープwakame (seaweed) soup) wasn't very Thai-like but the food was good. The prices are on the cheap side, appropriate for being close to a university. I can't wait to try other dishes; hopefully I won't time my visit with a bazaar.☺

Rattle the keyboard;
let it all out.
If thoughts disgruntle
to the wall shout.
Vent your emotions
into the void.
Nobody viewing
then feel annoyed.
You out there searching
better beware
something might hit you
aimed with due care.
Fellow reporter
somewhere in space
star in the galaxy
one of the race
show me your ideas
what may arise
truths and opinions;
hold back the lies.
And if you're truthful
I may be too.
Chances for honesty
shared by us two.

Country of origin: Canada
Peter Charles Archibald Ewart Jennings, CM (July 29, 1938 – August 7, 2005) was a Canadian-American journalist and news anchor. He was the sole anchor of ABC's World News Tonight from 1983 until his death in 2005 of complications from lung cancer. A high-school dropout, he transformed himself into one of American television's most prominent journalists.
Jennings started his career early, hosting a Canadian radio show at the age of nine. In 1965, ABC News tapped him to anchor its flagship evening news program. His inexperience was attacked by critics and others in television news, making for a difficult first stint in the anchor chair, and Jennings became a foreign correspondent in 1968, honing his reporting skills in the Middle East.
He returned as one of World News Tonight's three anchors in 1978, and was promoted to the role of sole anchor in 1983. In addition to anchoring, Jennings was the host of many ABC News special reports and moderated several American presidential debates. Having always been fascinated with the United States, Jennings became a naturalized United States citizen in 2003.
Along with Tom Brokaw at NBC and Dan Rather at CBS, Jennings formed part of the "Big Three" news anchors who dominated American evening network news from the early 1980s to 2005. His death, which closely followed the retirements of Brokaw and Rather, marked the end of the "Big Three" era.

For those of you familiar with football lingo (my sports-fan daughter being one of them), the title of today's blog is what's known as an audible. Or in another use, you could say my son's rock band is barely audible. But in football, it's basically changing the play at the line of scrimmage at the last minute. That's what happened today. So after 11 straight plays (days) of a fullback blast up the middle (lung radiation therapy) that gained no yardage, we are now going into a spread offense (Tarceva). OK, now I've even confused myself. Essentially the intent behind the radiation therapy was to shrink the mass in my upper lung that has a vise grip on my esophagus or some other piece of my anatomy down there. No, not that far down. Unfortunately after 11 days, it does not appear the radiation has worked its magic and the partial lung collapse is still fully in place as is the mass.
So, the 1st audible plan was to immediately add the oral medication (Tarceva) to the radiation therapy which was to continue through next Monday. After talking with my doc today, a 2nd audible was called as he felt that discontinuing the radiation was ultimately the best plan of attack since it hasn't shown any benefit yet and there was some slight concern about having radiation and taking Tarceva at the same time. Plus there was a fear about potentially damaging my lung further with additional radiation that wasn't benefiting me.
So, essentially, while I graduated from brain radiation school magna cum zappa last week, I flunked out of lung radiation school today and have been kicked off campus. So much for my second diploma. Starting tomorrow I'll just be a druggie. Speaking of drugs, here is a picture of what a $200 pill looks like.
Amazing. Let's hope it works like a $200 pill. As you all are aware, I really had very few side effects of the radiation other than a squashed face from the brain radiation birdcage, along with just a little tiredness. But Tarceva comes with its own set of potential side effects. If you unrolled the list of them it would cover the length of your arm. Of course the last possible side effect is that it could kill me. But so could an aspirin. I guess they have to CYA. The most common side effect (30%+ of the patients) is a rash with what may appear like acne if it reaches the face. Apparently this is most often a good sign since it it usually indicates the medicine is working. So the next picture you see of me will hopefully look like my high school sophomore picture, looking a bit like the surface of Mars. The number 2 most common side effect (excuse that pun…not), is diarrhea. I will not be sharing any photos, thank you. Hard to believe that little tiny pill can do all of that and more. You'd think I would have to swallow a pill the size of a suppository. OK Craig, now you are over the line. But I think some of the radiation may have removed what was left of my filters.
So today is really Rx day. Kim's mom is in the hospital as I type this recovering from hip surgery to replace one of the two that were already replaced some time ago. Apparently she received one of those hips sockets that caused problems from the metal on metal rubbing that created cobalt poisoning in her blood. She'll have the second one done sometime in the near future. She's one tough lady.
And Kim was just diagnosed today with a case of shingles (as opposed to cement tiles). So far a light case (so I say), but I'm not the one dealing with it. It can be brought about by additional stress in your life. Stress, what stress? We haven't had any stress in our household lately.
Beep beep, back up the truck. So back when I was diagnosed with lung cancer as a pretty healthy, non-smoking, 60 year old, the first question out of my mouth was "how the hell did that happen?" Google, my friend and enemy, says that the most common source of lung cancer in non-smokers is from radon poisoning. Radon is a natural occurring gas (other than what our dog produces) that leeches out of the ground. So I bought one of those radon testing kits on-line, set it in our house over the weekend, and just mailed it back for testing. San Diego in general is supposed to be a fairly low-risk area as far as that is concerned. And I certainly hope it comes back in that category. I'd hate to think my whole family has been exposed to that over the years. Just wanna be sure.
Well, tomorrow brings a new phase into this battle. Let's hope the pill is mightier than the zap.
Business as usual. Day at a time.

My dear sister's birthday was on Tuesday. She makes me smile really big!! Her life is a reminder that God gives second chances. It's truly a miracle from God that she survived her last pregnancy. Ten years ago, my sister gave birth to her first daughter Daija. We assumed it would be a celebration full of joy and excitement, but quickly it turned into a nightmare. Loss of blood which required a blood transfusion, kidney failure, and blind in one eye. I remember getting the call from my Mama and my heart sank! She told me her c-section didn't go well. She explained everything that happened and my sister woke up blind in one eye. At this point I am shaky, terrified, and heart-broken! After I got off the phone with my Mom. My husband and I packed our things and drove ten hours to Michigan. It was imperative that we were at my sister's side. On the way there, my stomach was in knots and my heart was sad that my sister was going through that. All I could do in those moments was pray to God that she would still be alive when we seen her. When we arrived at the hospital, she was back to her normal self. All that terror was over and she could see me. Her blindness went away. I gave her a huge hug and thanked God for my sister surviving all that trauma. However she had to endure dialysis from her kidney failure. It was sad to see my sister in pain. I am glad she had family there for comfort and support. We spent some time with my niece and I couldn't stop staring at her. She was so precious. My dad was alive at this time and he gave her a teddy bear, but not just any teddy bear, this stuffed animal sung the chorus to "Wind beneath my wings" by Bette Midler. My dad definitely brighten up everyone's mood. What a special gift and memory we have in our hearts. We will never forget that time my Dad did that for my sister. He expressed his love through these words…"did you ever know that your my hero." ah brings me to tears. God spared her life and I am so glad I've been able to create memories and spend the last ten years with her. This was not the first trauma my sister had to go through. Oh my sister's aching heart! Her second pregnancy ended up being premature with my nephew. He weighed only 2 pounds. I vaguely remember that time, but I am sure her heart was in pain to see her son in an incubator. Praise God we didn't lose him. In some circumstances death happens unexpectedly. I think about how we almost lost my sister and then the loss of our Daddy unexpectedly. I think about what I would have done differently. It's teaching me to pay more attention and value people's lives and their hearts. To never give up on reaching my loved ones and others with the gospel (never stop praying for family, don't give up hope). It's teaching me to not hold back my love, but to give it freely. To be more kind and never hold back an encouraging word—those words someone needs to hear. Who do you need to forgive today?? Are you still holding a grudge from years ago? Please ask God to help you let it go if you find it difficult.
Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away. James 4:14
Remember to always tell and (if you can) show your loved ones how much you love and care for them. My sister's life is precious to me because of what she endured and conquered. I've had some wonderful memories with my sister since then and I can't imagine her not being with us. But I thank the Lord that she is. I love you sister..cheers to many more years! Your life is a gift and you're loved, chosen, and accepted by God. Chase after Him, He will never disappoint you. Your life proves how faithful God is.
My sister's precious family! I love them so much!
She is able to see her kids all grown up! 🙂
L to R: Justin, Matthew, my sis, Ricco, Daija
Thanks sis for your permission to let me tell your story. I believe it will inspire someone.
Linking up with Beth over at Simply Beth. She is doing the Love Dare. Go over and read her post. I love that book. It's one I recommend for sure!

This society and its need for self promotion is very peculiar. It is very different from the way I was raised. The necessity to let everyone know what we're doing fascinates me to the point that I wonder about its latent effects on future society.
For example, let's say that you have a child and you teach the child that everything he does is important to everyone else and everyone wants to know what he is doing; from eating a hot dog to his whole trip to disneyworld. The child goes into the world displaying relevant (and some irrelevant, of course) things that he is doing expecting that everyone else wants to know.
Soon, he finds that people are not responding to his displays of activity and he does 1 of 2 things: he starts to withdraw from society gradually realizing that people are only interested in themselves OR he steps up the display to make himself more interesting, more outrageous, more apt to be noticed.
Now you have two extremes here and they may not be applying directly to your child but this put people into 2 categories: watching or being watched.
Stop! Hold that vision that you have right now.
Go back to the beginning and see where it started.
Now shift your teaching to letting the child know from day 1 that everything they do affects their surroundings.
They see their actions differently rather than just seeing themselves. They may still display much of what they are doing to the world but their intent is different.
Now turn the camera around. Look at yourself and instead of taking a picture to show the world, take an inner picture, focusing beforehand on how you affect your immediate surroundings and your effects that you may not have realized before. Those effects keep going and affecting long after you are done.

At Our Lady Queen of Peace in Madison, that person is Principal Steve Bolser, who is suddenly faced with brain cancer.
Everyone is helping do what they can.
Joe LaBarbera shows us why Steve Bolser really is someone you should know.
The fundraising book fair at Our Lady Queen of Peace school reflects two of the most important lessons its principal shares with young people: place a personal emphasis on reading and become an ambassador of community service.
Get involved and do good.
If you can, do better.
Right now, nobody comes close to doing more for students or the community than Steve Bolser.
Bolser has been principal here for 16 years.
Right now, his chair is empty at Our Lady Queen of Peace school while he battles brain cancer.
Principal Bolser is a recognized community leader - someone who lives his faith at home, work and in the community, acting a positive role for everyone.
Colleen Penwell of Catholic Charities said, "and Steve Bolzer has done that for you know, now decades."
So Catholic Charities looked at him as just the wonderful example of somebody who embodies that.
Principal bolser is big on community service, encouraging students to help those who need it most.
Little did he know one day, he would be the one needing the help, and everyone here is stepping up.
Monsignor Ken Fiedler said, "people immediately surfaced. They provided meals three times a week for the family. High school students mowed the lawn. There's a group that helped fix up the basement. And now the big fundraiser."
These students are decorating a big tie drawing attention to the event.
They know Principal Bolser has been helping them for years.
Now it's their turn to step up and do good, just as he would.
Peter Culver, one student, said, "he was just always really good and spontaneous because he always had about let's see, between 50 and 75 ties like tacked up on his wall at least 15 of them featuring snoopy."
And dozens of others filled with the same character Principal Bolser shares with the kids.
Many of those ties still hang in his office, waiting for his return.
On a wall outside his office, paper ties.
Each one bought by a student, parent or faculty member to raise money for medical bills.
All for a man filled with character.
Maura Drabik, another student, added, "for Market Day, we were selling pies and if we could sell like over a number of pies, he would shave his head and we sold that so then he shaved his head. And then one year he also dressed up as a clown for that. So he just always knew how to get the shool involved."
Now everyone is involved in more than his life, they are invlolved in his battle to keep it.
A battle they all believe can be won.
Bolserpalooza was Saturday and exceptionally successful.
While Principal Bolzer is going through a very tough time right now, his students are hoping he'll be back soon.
Parents and staff are hoping support and prayers will make that hope a reality.
