Day 132 - a good week

The last week, since our last oncologist appointment, has been good. Adele and I have enjoyed being able to laugh a bit and most of that was at me - as I struggled to get up while ignoring (muttering, hissing, and groaning at the same time) all the pain in my back. Never really ignored it, just took vicodin and muscle relaxers when at the worst. Yes, even tried morphine, and vicodin does just fine usually.

Oh well, the pain has subsided to a dull roar, which is the usual level, so I am back to carrying computers around again.

Adele has gotten back into cooking and cleaning up while I was disabled, and enjoying the normalcy again. We went to Kitty's funeral last Friday, and are on the way to Cyril's this morning. Both were brought down by cancer in the past years, Kitty being a 20 plus year survivor of breast cancer. Cy had a brain tumor that brought him down for the past 2 1/2 years. They were both fighters, doing everything to stop and reverse the cancer, God love them both for their courage in the fight.

Not too much else to talk about - except in less than 10 days we will be on our way to GA and our extended family down south. The Ruby slide show runs on our home page, and I have been working at getting new pics there constantly. Yes the sock monkey is about the same size as her! Hope you enjoy the slides. Some of her first pool time are there now.

Thanks to all - Rick
