We are back in Durango after finishing round 4. It was a little quiet this round.  Sara and Zane and Lorrie and Dave kept us company. I had a new room that was quite nice. The weather was so so. The Huntsman has a lovely patio on the fourth floor.  I enjoyed spending some time outside until the wind and rain broke through.

I am so grateful to my extended family for keeping me company all those weeks.  Maebie dog had a visit at the Huntsman as well.

Tim has been amazing.  There is no way I could have maneuvered myself around without Tim's help. He was always there for the paperwork, planning and comforting me. He initiated  labs here in Durango (when we were not in SLC.)  He spent a lot of time with me that was precious.  It is not easy to stay in a hospital for an extended visit.  He was with me most of the time, and I really appreciate our time together.


Next step.  Catscan in 2 weeks.  I will keep you posted.

Love,
Terry

Greetings from Durango.

I will be starting my fourth round of Chemo this Wednesday,  April 10th.

I have been in Durango for a little over 2 weeks.  Thanks to my wonderful friends who have fed me, walked with me, gave me flowers, books and videos, and visited with me.

Thanks to my husband (Tim) and children (Sara and Patrick) who have taken such good care of me.  Thanks to all my 6 siblings (Claire, Kathy, Barb, Dave, Hugh and Tom) who have visited me from Kansas, California, Colorado and Utah.  Special thanks to Dave and Lorrie for arranging accomadations for our family and many wonderful meals.

My sister, Barb has been visiting with me for 3 nights this weekend.  We had a wonderful time reminiscing.  Thanks to all of you near and far that have shared your love.

Onward to Chemo 4!

Love,
Terry
