Despite all of the various setbacks, we are doing alright. I see normalcy just ahead, and I desperately just want to be 'normal' again. My body seems to be on the edge of finding it. I walked our normal two-mile route yesterday. I wanted to quit near the 1.5 mle mark, but I pushed it and made the...

I'm finally beginning to feel better. I was admittedly 'dog tired' all during the radiation treatments, but that is beginning to fade now.
