...Well, it's been a while since I posted some photos. I am in the full treatment with chemotherapy, am totally bald and doing my best to stay focused on my health. This is follow up chemo, to be sure no stray cells got loose, so am moving on with just two more treatments to go. It's tough, and hard at times, but so many friends have made me happy.
And John Cornish, thank YOU for your kind words.

Gail,

Nice to see you back posting and glad to hear you are nearing the end of your treatments. Laura and I thought of you and Jim as we browsed through the minerals at the Perot Museum this past Friday. Very nice display, and we look forward to going back and seeing the rest of the museum.

Hello one and all, update time.
I am done with chemotherapy and am on some follow up pills, for five years, which will help with keeping cancer at bay. I feel great! Have a good deal of my strength back, am growing some hair, am enjoying cooking and volunteering again.
Dave Wilber was just here for a week, we had fun. So....we will be at the Denver show, look for a show report as usual! Hugs to you all, and to those who kindly sent notes.
