Update on my heart health after going through all these brain cancer treatments.

And welcome to new subscribers.

Just a health update of the struggle since the seizure and a merry Christmas message and update on my Afibber ectopic beats 

Spur of the moment live stream. I want to talk about my keto diet and how it finally gave me some trouble with my afib. And what events led up to that A lot of people have been asking. So I thought, why not just help on a live stream?

Also, I'll give a quick update about my first day of radiation and chemotherapy.

Our first show is dedicated to the following channel and the memory of their son, Ethan.

On this episode, I am privileged to be joined by Mr Terry Tucker, a good friend who has supported me through my cancer journey so far, a former guest of the Afib Show, a wonderful motivational speaker, and just a wonderful human being. So I'm. thrilled to have him back on the debut of my new live show conquering life and cancer. I can't imagine a better guest for the first episode Look forward to you joining us this Sunday at 8:00 PM Eastern Time.

The last two minutes of the live show will feature a special prayer session for those interested in staying. If that doesn't interest you, feel free to drop. But we are happy to have you stand join us. All are welcome even. if it's just to listen. The prayer is below.

Saint Michael the Archangel,
Please assist us to serve the Lord our God.
And guide us to do so in our battle against cancer.
Be our shield against the trials and uncertainties of this illness.
We seek your strength and God's grace in this time of need,
and humbly ask for healing and comfort.
O mighty Protector,
by the power of God,
grant courage to those of us facing this challenge,
and support to those who fight it with us at our side,
as they navigate the complexities of this journey
And carry burdens that go beyond our own.
For it is they who will carry on the fight once we have fallen.
So it is for them. Most of all, we request a special blessing
May your divine presence be a beacon of hope,
guiding us towards recovery and peace.
We ask that you shield us with Grace and
Arm us with unwavering Faith.
So that we may bring glory to God as we fight this personal war.
Amen.

Armed with new information I'm struggling over decision about going on chemotherapy on top of radiotherapy for the next 12 months

Checking in with you all

I am meeting @neffexmusic in person on Saturday and would like to leave him a link to this video along with a little letter explaining how I got a bunch of Afibbers to start exercising using his music on YouTube for live streams and videos.

So this video is here for @neffexmusic I look forward to the concert Saturday in Toronto, I have my VIP ticket ready!

I consider this the sequel to my treadmill video. Filmed on a 5K walk today as I recover from my craniotomy walking has become a more and more important part of my fitness since I’m not allowed to lift any weight for months - in this video I discuss how my heart has been doing through all this recovery time and the absence of ectopic beats, which has been a blessing, and how badly things could’ve gone if my hay had gone if my AFIB had come on in the last few weeks

Entering my first powerlifting competiton at age 48.

Special thanks to Coach Travis and the Functional Strength Barbell Team for all their support.

Being my first competition you will see it took a few lifts to get right with ref commands and rules, but once I get the hang of the flow, it all comes together.

How I prepared my lift plan for the May 7th open meet, IPF rules.

I'll be competing in Masters 1, 120kg+

This is how I use Google Sheets to track my workout progress.

This is my first attempt at voice and screen capture, Im sure my 2 subscribers don't much care if the sound quality is not ideal.

There is a public version of my sheet you can use for yourself:

Decided to test all my lifts prior to competing May 5th. This way I can maximize my last few weeks of training. New PRs have been set and I am feeling stoked and ready.
