Hearing From Dick & Melba

Melba is always so thoughtful. Peggy's cousin has sent her goodies throughout Peggy's cancer trial. A box arrived Saturday. Since Dick & Melba are traveling, they also keep us in postcards indicating where they are. Here are the last 2 we received.

Bald Eagle

Another recent shot from Lake Taneycomo. I was disappointed that I didn't get a sharper image of this majestic raptor.

Great Blue Herons in Nests

I shot these impressive birds on Lake Taneycomo.

More About the Bell

Be sure to view the 22-second video of Peggy ringing the bell in the post below.

Peggy Rings the Bell!

After months of treatment, Peggy rings the bell in the Hulston Cancer Center three times, signifying she has just completed her last treatment. Yahoo!

Still some stuff to come, including a trip back to the cancer center tomorrow for a shot, but she's had the last of the poison. Now a month and a half to get it out, then 6 weeks of radiation.

4 Days to Go

6 Days to Go

Counting down to Peggy's last chemo treatment. She will get to ring this bell next Wednesday.

Peggy's Chemo Session #7

We are here right now. This has been the hardest of all it seems ... just to go to. The time is dragging by and the cumulative affects of the chemo have been hard on my girl. She doesn't complain much ... she is so up-beat with other people. The end is approaching. Peggy gets to ring the no-more-chemo bell in 2 weeks!
