One year ago

 One year ago-chemotherapy; Last Friday-Zion National Park

One year ago Dale received his first round of chemotherapy, I got in a car wreck on the way home from the hospital, several months of treatments began, we learned about cancer, medical procedures, and the kindness of many friends. This picture was taken in Zion National Park while we explored one of the walks. It was a beautiful day, temperature mild, and wonderful nature scenes. We realized it was the one year mark of Dale's first day of treatment. I like this activity better and I did not wreck anything on the way home. The next chapter begins.

Tired days

Day 190 was last Thursday. Generally, Dale goes from day to day okay. He needs much rest and feels "just not right" although he continues to make it through each day. Sleep does not give rest but Dale gets up, goes to work, comes home, and unless he has a social event or obligation of some sort planned, he is done for the day. His work provided him with a laptop to bring home and continue working when he needs to. I hope he will take advantage of that benefit because he is exhausted each day. Last week's colonoscopy brought no surprises, yet. Biospies will be in probably next week. I hope remission continues. Dale says he feels as tired as he did before diagnosis.
