Friday Evening, Aug. 17, 2007

Last radiation for the week. I could use a weekend off. On Monday, after the radiation, they will do a scan to check the progress, and if it has changed much, will make a new template to work from. I would not go in for a couple days while they make the change in plan.

I have felt nauseous most of the day, but I did have one highlight. I purchased a wig with Janine and Jillian's help. It's quite sassy with blond highlights (Sorry, Dave, not red). That's what happens when he takes off at such an important occasion. I sure do miss him, though. Maybe that's why I feeling blue.

Then to top it all off, dog Sadie decides to get a bladder infection, so we spent over an hour and $200.00 at the vet. She has to go back on Monday for a series of tests.

I look forward to friend Mary coming tomorrow. What a reunion that will be! I'd better get a good nights rest, so I'm ready. Until then.....

Love and Gratitude......Linda

I'm off to take care of Marissa until Wed. and then am going to Fremont to spend a couple of days with Mom and Dad. I'm putting a letter to you in the mail tomorrow with a timely cartoon.
Let's have a picture of you in your wig now.
I was going through an envelope of letters that I had written to Aunt Gen. She saved them and whoever sorted her things saw that I got the ones that I sent her. There was a thank you for the wedding gift to Skip and me that she had given to Rich to give to us. I wrote that Rich brought it over because you were in Oregon. This would have been summer of 1967.
Grandma Rasmussen saved a letter that I wrote in which I said that Mom was having a birthday and getting so old. I think she was 35.
I never accomplish what I set out to do when going through old things because all I do is read them and of course, I can't throw them away.
Have a good weekend.
Love and prayers,
Ruth Ann

I feel badly that you don't feel well today...I understood it was jsut tonight.

Friday dinners are a small group activity so no opportunity to call.

I got some "admire and respect" comments from some participants based on my vulnerability around your illness..not that we needed the illness but I was surprised....

Tomorrow is a busy day...and I will call early...so have the phones on please....

I love you...
