having a few days off from the clinic is such a nice thing. What drove me crazy was when they cut me down to once or twice a week. I was hanging out in Seattle with nothing much to do when I could've been home, or so it seemed.
But it was good to be there when something came up that needed their attention. For now, enjoy the days off. In time, it will be back to real life and ya'll wont have the time together you're having now.
I'll tell you one thing, though, I wouldn't want barium pumped into my belly on a regular basis. I can understand getting sick afterwards.
And, yeah, it's all easier said than done. But just trying makes it possible to have a few good moments. My theory is always, if you can get a few good moments, it's better than none.

This past weekend was nice. We got to sleep in everyday as Dave didn't have to go into the ATC. We moved to the other apartment Sunday afternoon with my mom's help. She's staying with him now. I'm back in College Station for a few days. I was soo happy to see my dogs, and they me I'm going back down to Houston Wednesday for the Thanksgiving holiday. Looking forward to seeing my family. Dave continues to improve steadily, which I'm very happy for. He seems to be getting his strength back a little as well.
Sounds great, Levica. I love it when people have such a good response and I hope and trust it will continue.
That you're back in CS reminds me to ask, have you been able to continue your studies at all this semester? I know it would be tough but colleges are so much more flexible than they were when I was in school, who knows?

Tex: I wasn't taking classes this semester, and my advisor was very understanding of me being down in Houston with Dave during his stay in the hospital. The main instruments I'll be using for my dissertation research are down till January anyways, so it worked out in that way for me.
Dave got the results of the PET and CT scans this week. According to the results, the cancer is resolved. There were some other big words I don't know the meaning of, but basically he's clear of cancer, yea!! We're excited and encouraged by this news We're enjoying Thanksgiving with my family here in Houston,
We wish you all a Happy Thanksgiving!

Great news levica. I am sure it was good to get home and see the dogs. Will you be returning to school full time in January?
Yes, I'll be back in the lab full time in January.
Sorry for not posting recently. We had a great Thanksgiving weekend. Me, my twin sister and our mom did a bit of Black Friday shopping, which was a lot of fun I'm back in College Station at the moment. I'm heading down to Houston tomorrow to spend the weekend with Dave and I'll stay through Tuesday, which is when his lung procedure is. I've kept myself quite busy with lab, dogs, cleaning house, etc. Dave's been doing well. He's still anemic, and getting blood once a week, otherwise he's coming along well.
