The Man Of The House is having a birthday today. He has been taking fantastic care of me since my surgery on Thursday (and I’m recovering nicely, thank you!) and today The Daughter and I have been trying to arrange a few nice surprises for him.
He mentioned this morning that he never expected to get this old! Quite a few people agreed with him at one point, including the team of oncologists at MD Anderson who didn’t expect him to survive his stage four cancer, which had metastasized to his lymph system and lungs. Major advances have been made in the treatment of testicular cancer, in part because of the aggressive and experimental treatment that The Man underwent in 1988.
I’m not up to taking him out for a big night on the town, but a small celebration at home is definitely in order. Sing along with us, if you’re so inclined.


I hope you all enjoy a fabulous evening. Tell t MOTH that your readers wish him a happy birthday!
