Racing and Traveling

Updates are few and far between these days, which is a good thing! We’ll start back in September with the LUNGe Forward event that was held at the NC Art Museum this year. It was a great venue, and this year was a walk as opposed to a run ~~which was really disappointing to people like myself who love to run so, so much~~. So, no medal winners to report on this year, but a lovely time was had by all.

Most recently, Gwen has had some scans, traveled to Boston for a report, and grabbed a new stash of medication while there. I was fortunate to be able to travel with her for this trip. I was worried about Boston in November, but ~~thanks to climate change~~ it was an amazing 68 degrees and sunny! We had a great day, other than Gwen’s airplane TVs not working on both flights.

Way too early in the morning on the first flight.

In June, her scans showed a mess of white spots in her lungs, and when we saw the comparison to this month, the improvement was obvious and measurable, even to our untrained eyes. There is also evidence of healing in her bones as scar tissue is present there. ~~I don’t know much else as I was in the bathroom when the doctor showed up.~~

We have many things to be thankful for this year, and hope you all do as well. The next Boston trip is in 12 weeks, so we will touch base again then ~~if I remember.~~

Happy holidays to you all!
