We are so blessed by the kind acts of so many people. We are very thankful for your support and caring. Ellen is now ten days past her last chemotherapy, and her energy has rebounded. Yesterday, we took a long walk under a lovely blue sky. I think it was six miles. And when we …
Un aviso para todos
Ellen está durmiendo. Duerme mucho en estos dias, después de los tratamientos. Esta muy cansada. Paso el miercoles por la segunda infusión de un total de seis en su nuevo regimen de quimioterapia. Son cada tres semanas. La última fue miercoles 9 de octubre. La próxima el miercoles treinta del mes. Y lo que esperamos …
Yesterday
We had a lovely day yesterday to walk to the hospital for Ellen's latest chemotherapy infusion. Tonight the weather changed, the wind is blowing and snow is in the forecast. Ellen showed a lot of energy on the walk. The rest of us had a hard time keeping up with her. She is of course …
An Update to All of You
Ellen had her most recent chemotherapy treatment at Gunnison Valley Hospital on September 19, ten days ago. She tolerated it well. This was the first of six treatments in the new series; a different set of medications from the previous treatment. They are scheduled to go on into January. The results of the previous rounds …
Cambio de Planes Para el Jueves
Una de las cosas que hemos aprendido a aguantar en los últimos meses ha sido cambio constante: cambio de planes, cambio de expectativas, cambio de direcciones.

Our future

The news is not what we had hoped. It seems that Ellen's chemotherapy has not been effective to the necessary degree, and the situation …
Hope
This is Luke Ellen and I just got home from Denver after a difficult visit. We are both exhausted. Ellen and I have discussed this message and it is from both of us. And from the heart. We  took several hopes with us to Denver, where we went for more testing and meeting with Ellen’s …
Onward
So Ellen is now eleven days past her last chemotherapy. It has been hard for her physically. But every day she seems stronger, and her spirit is remarkable. Today we went for a walk in the high mountains above Crested Butte. It was a lovely day and we enjoyed every minute of it. Some of …
