Day Negative 4: Holding Steady

Andrew still feels pretty good.  But we both know what's coming and that this might be the last night he feels like himself.  This looming shadow makes it hard to enjoy the great weather and relatively "easy & quick" treatment days (3 hours or so, in total). However, we did spend a lot of the day outside and enjoyed watching dusk come from a few adirondack chairs in the front garden of our "hotel."  It kinda sorta felt like the Greenbrier, especially when Andrew said, "Hmm. I wonder what's taking the waitress so long?"  Sigh.
For me (CJ), technology has been the bane of my existence today.  This morning I could not connect to the internet from my work computer.  Now I can ONLY connect through our Remote Access which is slow and clumsy if I'm not trying to access work documents.  Weird. And I lost a long email I wrote at the hospital this afternoon.  Little things that seem like huge hurdles.  Thankfully, Andrew has had no such problems and has been able to continue working, part time at least, this week.
But all in all things are proceeding according to plan.  Andrew looks great and we both commented (in a good way) on how we're spending a lot of time together.  At the same time, it's so quiet here in our apartment, especially in the evening, without the kids and Rocko bouncing around - we miss everybody!  We're sad not to be at the high school's Back to School Night tonight, but we're thrilled that the reports from home show the kids and my parents actually thriving!  Thanks to so many of you that are helping to make that happen.  We are so blessed!  And maybe AJ will still feel good tomorrow and we'll get to end another day in the garden in this fabulous weather.
