Weekend update

I made it home from Ottawa to visit for the weekend.

Bette and Glen (and Adam and Amy) were kind enough to have Mike, Doug, Katie and I over for dinner Saturday so we had a lovely visit with them . Wasn't quite the normal annual pool party, especially since none of us were brave enough to go in the water, but we had fun anyway!

After dinner we headed down to PMH to visit mom. We tried to use the "good" lounge that has a great view of the city, but some old guy was in there watching tv, so we were forced to use the normal lounge with no view :( Darn patients using their own lounges!

Mom looked good. I think she was feeling pretty good (maybe she'll comment and let us know) but she seems to be doing well. Apparently this week is when the chemo starts to make her more sick, but we're keeping our fingers crossed that it won't be too bad.

A few technical notes for those that enquired:
~ The blog only shows the 7 most recent posts. To view older posts, scroll to the bottom of the screen and click on "older posts". Or use the Archive table at the right to navigate.

~ To leave a comment, click on "comment" for the post you'd like to comment on. A new screen pops up with the comments on the left and a box to write in on the right. Write your comment, then select your identity (I'd recommend choosing "other" then filling your name in the name box) then click on "publish your comment". If you have a google blogger account you can sign in and use your account, but you don't need to.

~ Mom's email address is janetaug07@hotmail .com She's checking email and I'm sure is happy to hear from people

~ Any time before 9:30 at night is okay to call. If she doesn't answer she's not there!

~ Mom can't have flowers and doesn't need any food (at least for now...they've got lots in the hospital...even icecream she can have whenever she wants!), but if you wanted to bring something or send something she's putting pictures up on her wall and would love a photo of you or of a good memory to add to the wall.

I think that's it!

PS Happy Birthday Mike!!
