17

More good news. My cancer markers continue to drop. Last test result was 22 and we are now at 17. I had more energy after chemo this week than usual and am hopeful for a healthy and energetic weekend. After next Monday's round we can cross off 4 out of 6 IP treatments. My oncologist is talking about a year of evastin when I am done but the schedule and side effects should be much easier than what I've already been through. Bring it on!

We generously provided snow and cold weather for Ann and Karen's visit from California- What a joy to have them here. I went to Florida with my brothers last weekend to spend time with my 88 and 86 year old aunts who we love dearly. Helping them through some of life's tough decisions reminded us that aging is not for sissies.

Looking forward to Jonathan's brother and family arriving on Christmas day and then to the Joseph wedding on New Years with more family. Sending peace and joy from our household to yours.
