Well, Gaye has completed one week of the higher dose of her chemo maintenance treatment and done well. She had no stomach issues (no nausea) and sleeping went well. Eating and energy are good as well. Feeling positive about where she is right now. In fact, we (Bob, Lynne and Gaye) have decided to book a Fall Foliage cruise from Montreal to New York - an 11 day river cruise (October 11-21) with hopefully lots of beautiful fall colors. We figured if we kept it more local (not international, as in not off the continent that is) that this was doable. And of course cruising makes it so simple. We are excited and were able to get some last minute rooms on Oceania. This will be between chemo treatments so picking the best possible timing we hope.
Gaye's main sadness is her hair right now, so we went and got her "hair done". Think she is going to be pleased with the results. Tried a lot of styles but this one reminded her most of how her hair used to look.

I am heading home early tomorrow, Sunday, to avoid the Labor Day Weekend traffic. And the heat during the day. Have to say that Santa Barbara's weather is so much nicer than San Diego's right now...



Well, Sept 3 was 75th my birthday, and I had a wonderful day with my son's family ... but this news makes it even better! The hair looks terrific and she looks wonderful. Been thinking about her a lot, and your blog really meets my need to know how she's doing. I'm hoping things continue to go well, and Gaye can keep that smile going!
