The finish line is in sight !!

Hello All,

I just completed #15 of the 33 radiation treatments on Friday. So far it has gone by quickly with little or no side effects. I am a little tired but that comes with the treatment and is cumulative. I saw my chemo oncologist yesterday and I do not have to see him again until November.

We had some great company last Saturday. My brother Bob and his wife Sandy made a trip down to visit. They stayed at the Marriott in San Diego as they had points to use up. We had a great time catching up on family news and they got to visit with Mandy and her family as well. Emma (Tony's daughter) was still here so they got to see her as well. Although we have seen them at family functions we rarely get the chance to have that one on one conversations. It is nice to have that kind of time together.

We are having a hot spell here but will not complain as our friends and family who live on the east coast are bracing for Irene to come their way. Our prayers are with you all.

We are going to watch Brayden play in their playoff championship Basketball tournament at 11AM. If they win they play for first place at 12:30. One blessing is that it is at the indoor gym at the YMCA.

Hope you are all finding something fun to do this weekend with those you love.
Love Kathy

  2. Hi Kathy, It's wonderful to hear of your continued progress. It must have been great seeing Bob and Sandy, it is always special when you can have a one-on-one visit, it seems so much deeper. Shannon and I had the pleasure of being seated at the same table as Bob and Sandy at Shanes' wedding reception. Had a nice visit with Sandy. God moves in beautiful ways. I am always amazed at how he continues to reveal "his" plans for our lives. Continuing to thank God for you and your witness of his mercy and grace. Love you so much. Hugs, the other sister, Linda
