Happy Easter! I can hardly believe that March is now only a memory - such a busy month for me and my family. Grant and Tosha married on March 6th and several family members joined them the next week for a honeymoon in LasVegas. Tosha's sister, Tina and husband Josh, along with Lindsay, Aaron, Marlin and me spent 5 days seeing the sights in and around LV. We spent Sunday on a Hoover Dam tour. Most of the time we walked the LV strip to see the free shows - and some of them were impromtu - if you know what I mean. LOL! The water show at the Bellagio was my favorite - spectacular!
I traveled to Belfast, Northern Ireland for a 9 day trip for work, March 22-31. I traveled with a colleague and we had a successful trip. Washburn is planning student and faculty exchanges with three universities in Europe and Queen's in Belfast is one of the participating nursing schools. The weather was unseasonably cool, wet (rained almost every day), and it snowed the last day we were there - delaying flights out. I was really glad to get home.
I took chemo treatment on Thursday, April 1, no foolin', and I was really tired for a couple of days. I'm sure part of it was jet lag, but nevertheless, I was very fatigued and nearly slept all day on Saturday after treatment. I have a PET scan scheduled for April 13 and I am anxious about it. Results will determine if the chemo drugs continue to fight the disease. I am having pain in my left shoulder, which worries me, but the physician doesn't seem too concerned. I'll have another treatment next Friday, April 9, then the scan the following Tuesday.
Only 6 weeks of school left - hard to believe, it goes so fast! I plan to teach an on-line class in June.
And a verse for Easter Sunday -
Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me has everlasting life. John 6:47.
Blessings to you -
Love to you -
Ellen
