From Brother Jon: I want to remind Alison that we have pictures, and we're not afraid to use them!We visited Alison today (Matt, Christa, and myself.) Christa, Danielle, and Alison viewed pictures that Christa had collected, while Matt and I installed the new handrails on the stairs. Much to my surprise, they fit the first time, and are sturdily attached and ready for AB’s gymnastic moves. They are ready for stain and finish, so one home project down and another to go!
Alison looked great today, and was strong and in good spirits. Tomorrow is Day 1 for radiation and chemo. It should be a long day, as she needs to have her surgical staples removed first (otherwise, picture an image of aluminum foil in a microwave!) and have some sort of previsit instruction. We will all be thinking of AB tomorrow and hope the first day goes well.
Danielle was there today, but has a performance in Monterey this evening and will leave Kirk and AB alone tonight… but I think she will be back in the morning.
It was not too long of a visit today, and I had my work to do and had to be done before Alison’s nap! So that is all I have for now… --JB
I loved our visit today. Alison was so animated and just pure "Alison", it was a treat! Dani and I did work on pictures, but technically, that is a secret (thanks JB). Jon and Matty kicked out the "safety work" and then our "job" was done. As Lara would say, we wish you "rainbows and skittles", have a good first week sweetie, we love you!
