Early Summer 08 Update

School is out for the summer. Forrest and I both got straight A's last year. It has been nice to have a break. I had minor surgery one week after finals. What a way to start the summer vacation. I am starting to feel as normal as I can and am ready to do some fishing and camping.

Because we've been in constant moving mode in the past years we haven't had the time for much fun. We need to make the time. We are going to take a week off and go to the Southern Oregon Coast with Forrest's Mom and her family in August. I can't wait. We really deserve a time out. Forrest for sure earned it for both of us.

Dad is having surgery to remove the tumor in his arm and replace it with some steel plates. Hopefully they can get most of the tumor out. That would be ideal. His counts are up so he has started another round of chemotherapy last week. He is also figuring out when he will begin to harvest stem-cells for transplant later this summer. We can hope for a cure, but mostly a remission seems possible for now. I guess anything is possible.

Signing off...... weeds to pull, chickens to feed.

Cheers.
