I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

She’s Arrived!
Melany and Erin pulled into our driveway with Cheryl around 10pm last night. We all visited for a while...about two hours! Then Melany and Erin headed back home. Cheryl and I went upstairs and we visited even longer. At the moment I have not had a nap and I'm feeling a little bit on the tired side...we had better go to bed a little earlier tonight...the BIG question...WILL WE!?!? We have done a lot of porch sitting today. Nathan and Kathy and family found us in the back yard this afternoon. We had been dead heading flowers. They stayed a while and visited before heading off to swim at friends of theirs. Abigail brought the cheese cake that I had her make for us...one of the cheese cakes that she has made for a fund raiser for her youth minister's family venture out onto the mission field. We will enjoy it! After they left, Cheryl and I went to the local pharmacy. I needed to pick up a prescription and Cheryl went to look around and ended up buying my Christmas present! (By the way, I approve!) This evening we have eaten and cleaned up the kitchen...Cheryl washed the dishes that needed to be washed by hand. I'm blogging. She is talking to her husband on the phone. Woody went to TN oncology today for labs, to see his oncologist, and get his Keytruda infusion. The office is arranging an appointment with an endocrinologist to check out his thyroid more thoroughly and also arranging a complete body scan to check out how the Keytruda is doing at keeping his melanoma at bay or making it go away or...so...more appointments in his future. Tennessee has provided a lovely welcome to Cheryl...it has been an absolutely lovely day...perfect for porch sitting. I hope that tomorrow welcomes Rachel as well. Woody said that to enjoy this weather while we can as the humidity is supposed to be on the rise from day to day...at least they can adjust to the rise in humidity gradually! Rachel will almost be here at the house 24 hours from now. Visiting! Visiting! Visiting is going on big time at our house! Be safe! Be well! Be cautious!
