One of the things we have had to learn to cope with over the last six months is changing plans, changing expectations, changing directions. We hope it has not been so dizzying for you as it has been for us. Another change: Ellen's Thursday chemotherapy is now not in the morning, but at 1:00 pm. …
Thur. Sept 19th- Jueves 19 de sept.

Our future
abajo está en español We have heard from Ellen's doctors. She is fortunate enough to have a team of outstanding physicians helping her, in Gunnison and at Swedish Hospital in Denver. 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 …

Eight
We had hoped that six chemotherapy infusions would be enough for Ellen, and that is what we thought for a long time. Then it turned out that the doctors recommended two more treatments. As Lincoln said: "Fondly do we hope, fervently do we pray"that this will pass away. The support of friends and family is …
Amor y Apoyo
Estamos en un camino que no es facil. Lo que lo hace mucho menos difÃcil es el apoyo que tenemos de amigos y de familia. Hay tantos que nos han mostrado su solidaridad que no es posible nombrar a todos. Saben que estan con nosotros siempre, y que no hemos olvidado los cariños. Tuvimos una …
