Most of you know from facebook that Bobby's cancer is showing
improvement. The nodules in his lung are cavetising, Dr.
speak for holes in them and the mass in his liver has shrunk
by one third. He was being treated with a harsher, older,
chemo and a new drug. The new drug only helps thirty percent
of the patients but fortunately he is in that thirty percent.
I had lost all hope and words just don't convey the way all
of our spirits have lifted. He will have chemo still, every
three weeks. This is the first light in the tunnel because
he has had thirty chemo treatments so far and the last
series is the only response he has had to treatment.

We are enjoying this holiday weekend. Sleeping late and
going to the movies and out to eat Chinese. We saw Blended
which was light and funny. We have a good theater near
us and it is easy to get to and to get Ted's wheel chair
in and out. We can hardly wait for Jersey Boys. We are
stuck in the time warp when it comes to music. The fifties
and sixties stuff makes us feel young once more.

I have lost twenty three pounds and gained three back because the kids leave snack food all over the house. I
banished it all to the pantry.

Washing and cleaning the car are also on my agenda. It
is hard to keep it nice and clean with the kids in and out
every day. They aren't messy but they do track grass and
dirt in. Adrienne will get her license this summer and she
will be doing the back and forth to school route next fall.
Her father is so over protective, I hope he will loosen up
a little.

I have 5 green tomatoes! One of my Early Girls did not
freeze. I may get them in stages which will be nice. I
have a few herbs including a curry plant that I don't quite
know how to use. Ideas anyone?
