STILL ALIVE AND KICKING

Yes! I am still alive and kicking. When I said in my last blog that I might be back to blogging soon, I underestimated how much time and energy would be involved in having radiation five times a week and chemo once a week. Of course, we are involved in moving from a home we lived in for 43 years. I must have been dreaming.

Therapy is going well and I have no doubt successfully. I won't be finished until the end of August. We have already sold our house and bought a new one, but we won't be moving until Sept. 10 when we are assured my treatment is over.

As I say, most of the time I feel quite good. I just got back from radiation a couple hours ago, I usually crash for awhile upon reaching home, I haven't yet, but I can feel a nap coming on strong.

We are moving from our little farm to a patio home, all lawn care etc. taken care of, it will be a huge change, but one I am looking forward to. I will have all the time I need to write and then some. Our new home is close to the Mississippi and there is a trail we can take leading down to it, so I will have plenty of chance to exercise.

This experience, although not pleasant, has been very enriching, I believe I have grown and am growing from it. Ideas that were just intellectual spiritual concepts, I have experienced at a much deeper level, a kind of knowingness.

I will expand on this when I return to full time blogging, which should be about Sept. 14 or thereabouts. Between then and now I will blog, when the energy to do so, comes together.

Love and Peace, Gregg
