San Diego, CA

All done with treatment!
Yesterday was the last radiation therapy treatment and today the Admiral visited with her oncologist and was given her next appointment for six months. All went well with the radiation therapy thus far but she may suffer from some ill effects over the next two to four weeks. We will have to wait and see. Also, she will start an estrogen blocking drug tomorrow and we hope that there will be no problems with it, as it is recommended she take this medication for 5- 10 years.
She is most relieved to have finished treatment and is now involved with much retail therapy with her sister, Susan who is visiting from England.
We have not been idle since my last post. We had a very pleasant celebratory lunch at the Prado restaurant in Balboa Park yesterday and last weekend was the walk for Breast Cancer.
A four mile stroll with about five thousand of our new best friends. Lots of noise and rah-rah but a very uplifting and emotional experience. We had Josette and James and Katie down for the weekend and we spent some quality family time together
The Admiral did well to raise more than $2500 for the ACS and again we would like to thank all those who contributed.
Photos to follow.
