Got released from the hospital on Tuesday and doing great. Pathology report was great. No chemo needed. We even went to her aunts for Thanksgiving

So shes doing great but moving a little slow. No black friday shopping for her

I had some time to work on the motorhome. Finally mounted my fmca plate and removed the entry step

For those who remember i was getting a ratcheting sound from the motor when the step retracked in. Found a broken weld on the step frame. It has to be welded in the correct spot for the step controler to know its in and to turn off power. So next step is to bring it to my buddy that welds. If the weld holds up im good. If it still makes the noise then ill have to buy a new step.

FYI the step is held in place by 4 nuts. The bolts come down through the floor. Very easy to take off. I used a couple boards under the step to support it so it wouldnt fall on my head

Ill update as things get done

Godspeed to your family. Cancer sucks but these are pretty good days medical wise. Mine was cut out 9 years ago and still cancer free. Glad you’re back. This thread is among my favorites!
