Cancer man.

Our last night of this year long journey was in Missoula, Montana KOA.  The trailer ahead of us at check in had its bumper falling off!  They pulled into their campsite and Greg noticed that the man was walking very slowly with a cane and upon meeting him it was clear that he wasn't old, but sick.  His wife had a limp because of knee surgery.  Greg went to help them remove the spare from the bumper and heard their story.  This was their farewell trip together.  He has terminal cancer.  They look like they were maybe in their late 50's early 60's.  Just another reminder of why this year was a good idea and that it is possible to wait too long.
