August 22, 2026 - Live Stream Details for Tami's Celebration of Life

First of all, thank you for the incredible outpouring of love and support. It's been a rather emotional few weeks, but thanks to all of you, I feel very loved and supported. You ROCK! 

I have had a number of people ask if there is a way to view the Celebration of Life if they are unable to attend.  The answer is, yes. Leo and Rochelle Catt have agreed to Livestream the event via FaceBook Live. 

For those of you unfamiliar with how to do that, according to Copilot, here is the  easiest way. (Note, you will need to log into FaceBook.)

Fastest way (mobile or desktop): Go directly to the Livecaster's profile

  • Open Facebook

  • Search for their name (Either Leo Catt or Rochelle Pratt-Catt)

  • Go to their profile

  • If they’re live right now, their profile picture will have a red “LIVE” ring around it

  • Tap or click the profile picture → it opens the live stream instantly.

This is currently the only reliable method in the mobile app because Facebook removed the old Live Video menu.

I hope this information helps people that are not able to be there, but still interested in seeing the event.

Also, I know I still owe you all an epilogue. I also owe that to myself and to Tami. Writing this blog has been a great way for me to focus and think through the lessons being taught, and the wisdom to be gained.

...More to come...

April 6, 2026 - Diagnosis Day (and a short history of how we got here)

Oncologist Appointment (4/6/2026) Tami and I met with the Oncologist today. He confirmed what we knew, and shared a few additional details. The bottom line is Tami has Stage 4 colon cancer, and the spread is too extensive for anything other than chemo. As the doctor said, " You can't radiate the whole body ."  He shared median survival rates with and without treatment, but emphasized that each patient is different. So, I will avoid putting an expiration date on my wife, and instead say we will fight, until there is no fight left.  Backstory In October of 2025, Tami began feeling uncomfortable sitting for a long time. She complained of tailbone, and general (severe) mid-section pain. By December and January, it had become so uncomfortable that we went to urgent care, and they identified hemmorhoids and provided PT exercises for Tami to work on. With no resolution, and increased pain, the doctor advised a colonoscopy.  Back to Back Colonoscopies  On March 11, Tami went...

July 26, 2026 - The Journey's End

This will be a very short post. An epilogue will follow with more details, insights, and gratitude after I have had some tme to process.   This post is simply to notify. Tonight, at 9:33 PM, after a heroic fight, a day with her siblings by her bedside and me crawling into her cramped hospital bed to hold her one final time, Tami shuffled off her mortal coil and went to meet our heavenly father.   As much as I am exhausted and devastated, I am grateful that she was resting peacefully when she passed. Her pain and suffering are over.  Thank you all so much for caring enough to follow this Journey. The love and support has meant more than I can possibly express in words.  More to come...

April 7, 2026 - Two Appointments - Both Positive

Post Hospital Stay Appointment with Primary Care Today was a good day. Met with Primary Care, which is standard procedure following a hospital stay. In this visit we were able to establish a recurring presciption for Tami's pain management, which is truly a God send. Tami has been in so much pain for so long, that being able to finally manage that has been a major boost to Tami's ability to cope with all that is going on right now. So, knowing that the pain management is guaranteed for a while is a huge win! Removal of the Surgical Staples The 23 staples from Tami's Surgery were removed. The incision appears to be healing really well. So, no additional dressing or action required on our part. Tami is now free to take a shower. The Bath wipes work reasonably well, but nothing beats a nice shower!
