Onward

After the first round of chemo, Tom had a two week break. We decided to attend a family gathering in Washington. We took our travel trailer which has almost all the comforts of home. It was a tiring trip but the rewards of seeing so many family members in one spot was worth it.

We were so fortunate to have one of our daughters and three of our grandchildren with us on the trip. I actually got a sunburn in Olympia Washington! Besides visiting with family we were able to get some great fresh seafood. We also drove to old homesteads and stirred up some great memories of our time living in Washington.

It's always nice to be home. Yesterday was the first of the next four weekly rounds of chemo. Bubba seems to be handling the treatments fairly well. He still has his curly hair and we are still trying to put more weight on him.

We haven't decided yet if we will travel on the next two week break. However, the following two week break is when we do our yearly trip with great friends. We go to Coos Bay, Oregon and get fresh crab. I can't wait!

Until the next time,
Jan
