Well Wishes...

Although I only got three hours of sleep last night thanks to Decadron that I receive as one of my pre-meds for chemo, I'm still going to try and have a fun day at the fair with family and friends. John's friends (Don/Kris & Dave/Brenda, along with their children) came from as far away as Salinas to spend the day with us at the California State Fair. We warned them that it's going to be somewhere between 102-104 according to the latest forecast, but with the asphalt at Cal Expo, it always raises it a couple degrees :( I agreed to go to the fair and walk as far as I possibly could without the need of a wheelchair, but I'm just going to have to put my pride aside and cave in when it gets to be unbearable. Believe me, I tossed the whole idea of going to the fair around in my head all night long, but eventually decided that I want to be a part of this family as much as possible and I can always take a long nap later this afternoon :)

John's mom, Pauline, is still in the hospital suffering from lung disease. We would appreciate it if you would send your prayers along to her and Charley (who is patiently awaiting for her to get better at home, while he recuperates himself from shoulder surgery). If you know Pauline, she's the most wonderful mother-in-law a girl could ever have and she's one tough cookie at the same time. Even if you don't know her, you'd love her. So please take a moment and send positive thoughts in her direction as she battles another tough round. We love you Pauline!!

Today I wish for cool temperatures & healthy thoughts for Pauline!!

Peace to you all ♥ Love, Genie
