Description

SH2-282:  Is an emission nebula in Monoceros, it is approximately 4900 light years away
and 50 light years in diameter.  Most pictures of SH2-282 are taken on its side but when
rotated it strongly resembles the Roger Patterson picture of Bigfoot taken in the 1967.

CANCER UPDATE

Today 3/18/2024 I completed my 14th radiation treatment.  That's exactly half way!
Generally I'm feeling pretty good.   I'm finding out if I still workout everyday day
it really does help, but if I over do it, it wipes me out by sunset.  So I have reduced
work out loads and get to bed early.  My PSA has gone from 44.5 to 18.5 to now
0.68 on my last blood test.  Men out there get your PSA tested!
