Fall is settling in!!

Well, the rain has begun in the lower mainland and the smell of fall is definitely in the air. So I decided to change the "wardrobe" of our little home from "Breezy Summer"

to "Cozy Fall"!!

We still don't have the radiologist's report from Bob's CT scan last week, but I will post an update when we do receive it.

It's wonderful to report that this has been a very good week for Bob. He received two chemo drugs last Friday and had some nausea on Saturday, but has been doing remarkably well--well enough to participate last Sunday in the our church's 20th anniversary celebration!! Then he went to work for a few hours on Tuesday, Wednesday, and plans to go again this afternoon before dialysis tonight.

Tonight we're going to have a "date" while he's on dialysis. We'll take a picnic supper to eat on his bed, and also our Scrabble game and a new book to begin reading aloud together.

Then tomorrow Bob will have chemo again. We're hoping he'll do as well as he did last week since he's been asked to play the piano for a Hymn Sing at our church on Sunday evening. What a great time of joyful singing and fellowship we will have!!!

A special thanks to those who are praying for us and also for my brother Jim. This week he's having both chemo (continuously for five days) AND radiation at noon each day. Next week will be his final week of daily radiation treatments (there have been six weeks in all!!) This has been quite an "assault" on his body!! After a few weeks of rest and restoration, Jim will have surgery--likely in late November or early December.
