Life is Good

Finally a quiet Saturday at home and time to get in a quick entry.

Jayme is doing well, still losing weight but has made significant progress the past month. The feeding tube is history and he is eating more frequently. Still small meals and handling some pain after meals, but overall improving. He is trying to decrease his pain meds and increase his daily exercise. Still doing 2-3 hours of computer work daily and hopes to make it to the office for a meeting next week.

He sees the oncologist monthly and will have another PET scan in October. But, so far there are no signs of recurrence. And, not a doubt in my mind he is now and will be cancer free down the road.

We continue to feel blessed daily by the continued concern and good wishes even this far removed from the treatment and surgery. And let me add that as a close observer of Jayme these past and present months, he continues to handle his ordeal with gratitude and humility.

We are looking forward to good times as empty nesters for the first time in 24 years! Not such a bad thing.

If anyone needs his email, it is gizmut@gmail.com.

Until next month....
