Evelyn's Story
Update* 07 August 2015 ~~~ For my last visits, m oncologists say I remain cancer free. This month will be 4 years for the tonsil and November will be 5 years for the breast cancer. We remain waiting for the oral surgery to remove the remainder of my teeth and the 20 treatments pre surgery and 10 post surgery. On the 12th, Bob and I will celebrate our 15th anniversary. It seems like yesterday! Our 4 rescued boys are still all thriving.

Update* 09 August 2013 ~~~ 3 of our rescued dogs went to Rainbow Bridge. We have 3 others and they are all rescues, too. All four have Chihuahua in them. Bruzer the Chorkie is still with us. The newer kids are Snuggles a long haired chi, KoKo a chi/pharaoh hound mix, and Slick a smooth coat Dachshund/long haired chi mix. Last week my ENT gave me a still clear on the tonsil cancer. That makes 2 years for it and 2 1/2 years for the breast cancer. Unless health issues keep us in FL, we are planning on going to the 50th class reunion next year. It will be fun to see classmates I'm sure.

Update* After finishing treatment for the BC on March 21, 2011,, I went for my 6 week checkup and the doctor found something on my right tonsil. Yes, another cancer. I had to have 8 teeth removed and a feeding tube inserted before treatment could start. I should be finishing both radiation and chemo by the end of August, 2011. Ev
Update* In November, 2010, Ev was diagnoist with breast cancer. Thank goodness she had her yearly mammogram, as it was found while still Stage 1. She started her treatment of a combination of chemo and radiation in Feb 2011. Bob

ving here, I was hired at the local police department. Several years later the job was moved to the sheriff's office. I went to voc-ed and received a diploma and state license in cosmetology. While working in a salon, I took a summer off and went to computer school in Greensboro, NC. I received my license in NC also. After my mother died in 1998, I decided to stay in FL. Bob and I married in August 2000. He has three children and one grandchild. They all live in MN. Bob is of Polish decent and enjoyed speaking with my aunt and uncle in Polish. It is close enough to our Dabelko Slovak that they all understood. Genealogy has been something that has interested me since the early 70's. I was able to research my mother's side of the family and joined the DAR. Together Bob and I help people in our area with computer set up and basics and I also do creative and spiritual coaching on an individual basis - mostly via email. Bob is a Navy vet on CVS12 on the Carrier USS Hornet and is active with the American Legion. Bob's site is where you can see more about his naval experience. Leave a note so I can give you the address. We have four dogs that we adore - all are rescued - Spirit the Husky, Dr Pepper, the Peke, Bruzer the long haired Chihuahua mixed, and finally Rex the Golden.
While I was working at Howland PD, I did manage to get my associate's in Law Enforcement Administration with a minor in Psychology plus a year more towards my bachelors, but life got in the way to keep me from finishing. As much as I loved being in OH, I doubt I could go back to live in the Warren area. FL has been home since 1991.
