LJ,

Did you ever think that you would rejoice in the doing of normal things?? I now understand "stop and smell the roses" as normal would be an excellent place to be right now.

We are starting our third week of treatment and the bad stuff is beginning. Bill is having lots of trouble swallowing...very painful and I am trying to look toward the day when we get back to at least a new normal.

Congrats on this milestone and the best to you and hubby! Deb
