Roller Coaster of Emotions

So much has happened since the last time I posted. Where do I begin? Where did I leave off is a better question for you. I believe the last time I posted was about a week ago. So to be honest with you I think nothing to report happened the rest of that week but the weekend was full of things.

Friday- I held a poker game at my house. A larger than average crowd came and we would make it a two table night. The highs of the night is that I won money, Jake an old friend from highschool came by, and Kamba my old enterprise boss came. Kamba was one of my true mentors in my life and if I had to pick just one person that has influenced me in business it would be that guy. It was a great night we ended up playing poker till 2am and I was whipped. But I knew I had a long day ahead of me on sat

Sat- I slept in because of course I was up all night playing poker and knew I would need my rest for that night. I was proposing to Kristyn tonight and she had no idea at all. We meaning the rest of the world knew about it but some how the bird never made it to her ear to tell her what was going on. Her family made up a white lie and told her we were going to an Oakland Basketball game for her father to receive an award for past accomplishments. She took it hook line and sinker. So to make this story shorter yes I proposed to her at halftime on the big screen for all to see. She cried and it took me to ask her twice for her to say yes. We all went out to dinner after the game to TGIF and it was a great night

Sunday- Holy crap I don't even remember what I did Sunday?!? Ok well If I don't remember you don't need to know right?

Monday- I had my Surgery to try and clear the artery in my leg. Well this did not go as planned. It didn't work and now I will have to have bypass surgery on my leg to correct the artery that doesn't work. No fun. I can honestly say that finding this out was pretty rough on me. I really thought for the first time that this surgery was going to go smooth and I would be able to be look something went right with all this health crap. No such luck. Tomorrow I will no longer be upset but I can tell you I was like how many times am I going to get kicked in the stomach before I don't smile any more? I mean he has thrown some heavy punches cancer, nerve damage, compression wounds, artery clogged, knee contractor, Not be able to walk, being told the cancer has spread wait no it hasn't wait yes it has, Now I need bypass surgery....but tomorrow I will smile again and be my happy self....not today...I only give myself one day to feel the pain and now I need to get back to knowing this whatever this is will all work out.

  1. Dearest Scott - our future son in law,
    First,if you need more than a day to feel bad, you are allowed and we all support you. We all can't believe what you have been dealt and how well you have been dealing with it. It makes me think of the phrase, 'Why do bad things happen to good people'? We pray every day for your continued strength, cuz you we know you could use a little extra strength now and then.

  2. Hello Scott! I did not know you had this blog until I saw it on FB. I am so honored to have met you because you allowed me to see what a true fighter is, forget Tyson, Marryweather, or Forman. Cordova is the champ in this fight! I will spread the word about cancer (all types) because I had a scare last year with breast cancer and things turned out ok. So please know prayer changes things (if you are the type) and you are always in my pryers.
