Geez UW ... I'm way off the east coast of Australia in the middle of the South Pacific Ocean and I can't swim. Got any other useful freebies?
Sure, Mike .. as you're slowly sinking, see if you can get a signal on your waterproof device and stream all the free Amazon Music you like within the very limited time you have left ..
.. may I suggest something from "The Little Mermaid" .. ??Amazon Unlimited Music 30-Day Trial for free

.. are those a screen grab / or a snapshot .. ?? Are they "out of the box" or do you do any post processing .. ?? I'm still riding the fence on a possible purchase ..
Good morning, everyone... I know that it's been a very long time since I've made it by here, and I'm so far behind that I fear it would be impossible for me to catch up at this point... but it's been a long weekend and we've recently gotten some rather disheartening news on the medical front. I know that quite a few of you have been following our journey, and I wanted to make time to come by and give y'all a bit of an update. My Darling Bride had CT scan on Saturday, then brain MRI, full body bone scan, echocardiogram, and an EKG on Monday as a screening for a clinical trial that was supposed to start today. Yesterday was an appointment to get the results of all the scans and talk about the trial... we got bad news. 
The scans showed significant tumor growth and spread. The tumors in her right lung have continued to grow, as well as the few tumors in her chest wall. But now they have found that she also has tumors in the liver, the right humerus,bones of the pelvis, both femurs, right fibula, sternum, skull, and spine. Also found a small 1cm tumor in the left cerebellum. That small little tumor in her brain disqualifies her for clinical trials. We have an appointment next Monday with radiation oncology to discuss the findings in the brain, and possible treatment options. If we can resolve the brain tumor, then it may be possible to resume clinical trials. Either way, it was very hard news to take. Her spirits are still up, and she is still fighting with everything that she has. I will continue to do my very best to keep her happy and to support and love her in every way that I possibly can.

So good to see you here, and giving us an update. Sad to see the discouraging news, but glad that both of you are fighting it.
Thank you.
I'm sorry that I've been MIA for so long... I keep trying to do better, but I keep sliding by the wayside. One of these days, I'll get my act together...

Screen grab.
So far, I've video'd all my flights - and to take a snapshot you have to stop the video recording. So I just play the vid, pause on a good scene, hit Alt-PrntScrn, and paste it into Paint to crop and downsize it (to 720 pixels).
Also, I need to get some filters. At least a Sky 1B and a polarizer, possibly some ND of various densities. I think the 1B would have helped a bit with the haze this morning.

That's just crappy news - I am so sorry.
Continuing prayers !
Yeah... I'm just a regular ray of sunshine. I hated having to share that... but we absolutely appreciate the prayers, Classy.
I sincerely hope that one of these days I'll be able to come and share some good news...

Any updates are always most welcome ! Never forget that, everyone here cares !
Yeah... I'm just a regular ray of sunshine. I hated having to share that... but we absolutely appreciate the prayers, Classy.
And I sincerely hope you and your sweet bride have some good news soon too!
You may have been kidding about the 'ray of sunshine' but you are an inspiration for sure! To keep a stiff upper lip in the face of what y'all are going through!
Sorry, but I couldn't bring myself to 'like' your earlier post... they should have a 'I read that' button.

We keep praying and fighting, brother... that's all we know to do!
Ha! Yeah, I was definitely kidding with that comment. I feel more like the "dark cloud of doom". I can tell you this, though... I am nowhere near being the source of inspiration that my Darling Bride is. In another conversation earlier, I said that if I were in her shoes, I'd be an utter wreck at this point... I'd probably just wander off into the woods and disappear. But she faces it head on with her chin up. She amazes me every single day of the week...
I know what you mean... I have lost count of the number of posts that I would have used that button on!
Mine is out in the Pacific looks to be about 500+ miles off of the southern part of S America. Nothing but water.For Earth Day, NASA is offering a slice of The Earth for Free Adoption, 64,000 pieces are available .. of course, you don't actually get to own your Piece ..

No I check on it but have been feeling pretty weird lately. Haven't even started cutting the patches down yet. Trying to get off the Xanax and cutting down on the breakthrough pain meds. Man that Xanas is a beech. I tried to cut it completely out Monday. Got down from 1.5mg-2mg to .5mg and when I went to bed my brain was working at 1000mph after 2 hours of laying there I took some. I had no idea this stuff was so addicting. I have a doc appt today. I'm down to .5mg and 6-10mg pain pills from 1.5mg and 8-9 pain pills. Plus trying to get used to my new glasses from the VA. I had no idea about the xanax been on them for 5 years.
