I'm happy to say that my June 21st tests all revealed that not much change for better or worse has taken place since the last battery of tests. The fact that the tumors have not gotten larger, and that the cancer has not spread anywhere else is reason to celebrate! My chemo went well on June 23rd. We decided to stay on the same chemo regimen until after I return from my visit to Louisiana in July. Until then, Bob, Sarah, and I continue to enjoy each and every day in the Colorado mountains and have been keeping a very busy schedule to include all the things we enjoy doing.
Bob celebrated his 64th birthday yesterday and is recovering really well from his heart surgery in May. He is back running, road biking, swimming, and working 12 hour days. Sarah is quite busy at the rec center now that all the kids are out of school on summer vacation. While she is anxious for school to resume, I am thankful that I still have about 6 weeks left before I will return to work. We are so blessed to live in this beautiful place where we have the support of so many wonderful friends. God is so good! My next update will be at the end of July after my next chemo and my trip to Louisiana.
