On Thursday we realized we had only seen pictographs yesterday, and surely there were more spring wild flowers farther in to Anza Borrego. So we took off on Thursday morning for another search for wild flowers in Anza Borrego. Of course we headed North on California S-2 from I-8 again (still loving every mile [...]

Come next Friday (3/28) we may have a window of 4-6 weeks before we have to return to Kaiser for more chemo treatments. So our time remaining in the El Centro area is quickly coming to an end for this season. There are still places we have not visited nor seen in this [...]

We have returned from our little trip to New Orleans, and we will probably carry those memories for a long time to come.
Paul has his 6th chemo treatment this Friday, and at that time we hope to find out what window of time we will have until he has to report for another biopsy (probably [...]

March 21, 2008 – Happy Birthday, Christina!

Although she is presently in Mexico, enjoying the good life, we think about our second child, born on this day almost two years after her older sister.

Hopefully, Word Press will correct this dumb little glitch – but in the meantime, this is the best I can do. The paragraphing (or lack thereof) doesn’t always happen [...]

New Orleans!

After Paul’s chemo treatment yesterday (Friday) we drove into San Diego to our motel (Ramada Limited) which is very close to the San Diego Airport. It’s an older building, and the rooms though small, were clean and nicely appointed. The staff on duty were ever so helpful in suggesting a restaurant and the [...]

Last Friday we drove the 100+ miles up to San Diego again for Paul’s 3rd chemo treatment. His nurse, Kathy, is really a treasure who makes sure that if we have any questions, she has an answer. She’s been in the business a long time, and we feel so confident with her.
On the [...]

March 2, 2008 – Looking for Spring wildflowers in the desert
Today was the day we decided to drive up to Anza Borrego to view the wild flowers. To reach the park we take the most scenic route around. Today we stayed off I-8 to Ocotillo, and went instead on “Old Highway 80″ [...]

Yesterday we drove up to San Diego for Paul’s second chemo treatment. Last week the nurse who will be administering the medicine was “off” and another fine professional took care of him. Today we met Kathy, who will be with us as long as the treatments are needed.
Kathy has been a nurse since [...]
