We are spending this winter in our RV, which is semi-permanently parked near Hondo TX, an hour west of San Antonio. Our RV park is a membership Co-Op, so everything gets done by volunteers. We have been very active; Doug is on the Kitchen committee and I am on the Membership committee. The park has a large clubhouse, and "social hour" three days a week. The main fund raising activity is dinners at the clubhouse. Doug and I are going to put on a baked potato supper with the help of other volunteers.
The weather here has been chilly at night but most days are pleasant. Usually it starts to warm up by February, and gets downright hot in March! We are enjoying our stay but will be glad to get home to Colorado in April.
Doug has a general practice physician here, and gets his blood work done at the local clinic. The results are sent to his oncologist back home. So far everything looks good.
We do have some sad news -- a man who just passed away from his MM. Mark lived on the east coast, so we never did meet him, but his wife kept a blog, much like this one. Mark was diagnosed in 2006 and had a stem cell transplant in late December 2008, just three months before Doug had his. After a remission, Mark relapsed in May 2010 and fought a hard battle with many complications. We are praying for his family.
We are constantly aware of the fragility of life, and so very thankful to God for Doug's health. We do not worry, but rather try to enjoy every day and trust the Lord to take care of us.
Love to all.
