Hi Helen!
I am feeling very well. I would say my energy is probably back to 80% of what it was, and my stomach has settled down a lot. I still have some swelling, but that may go on for some time. I just had another follow up appointment in Calgary this morning, and all is well. I will have one more appointment with just the physical exam, and then it will be time for an appointment with a scan. I have really enjoyed the summer, and have line danced, kayaked, hiked a bit, and bicycled. I am just so grateful that I have felt well enough to do these things! I also got to see our youngest daughter get married in Toronto. I am so, so grateful.

@dlgbb Hello! What a delightful summer you've had! Thank you for the photos and especially the photo of the bow of your kayak. Congratulations to the proud mother of the bride. The wedding photo is lovely with the painting in the background. Where did the wedding take place in Toronto? It's such a beautiful setting.

Glad to know, too, that your stomach is better and that your latest visit showed NED (no evidence of disease).

Although we've had very warm weather for the past few days (26 degrees!) the leaves are turning and Autumn is upon us. It's my very favorite season. The days are still warm enough to be outdoors, the nights are cool, and best of all--the biting flies and mosquitos are gone. I grew up in Southern California and so the change of seasons is still a remarkable experience for me.

I hope you continue to get your energy back. Like you, I'm so grateful to have my cancer care team who has continued to take such good care of me.
