Jessie Blackburn

Greetings. Sorry it's been so long, but things have been rather uneventful. Which is a good thing. Jessie is now half way done with Chemo and things still going well -- aside from occasional nausea and persistent exhaustion. Next week she starts on the Taxol, so that will be a whole new series of side-effects, but most people say Taxol isn't as bad as the stuff she's been having so far. We shall see. William arrived back from eastern Congo for an extended stay, so that's been nice. Otherwise, we all went to the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts yesterday for a Hopper Exhibit and she's going to exercise classes, yoga seeing lots of movies and happily having visitors. Otherwise, just putting one foot ahead of the last....
