We hope you all had a wonderful holiday. Our Orthodox Easter was yesterday and we were able to have a wonderful meal with our family. Thank you again George and Dimitra. Even though it wasn’t warm, the sun was shining and it wasn’t too muddy to have the egg hunt outside.

Chris started his radiation treatments last week and things are going good so far. We were told that the leukemia mass they are treating responds well to radiation. The radiation will shrink the mass which in turn should help him to have less pain and more comfort. They also stopped his chemo infusions but he continues to take oral chemo medicine. My honey is losing weight again but he has been really good about drinking the Ensure supplements. He likes chocolate and strawberry the best. Of course he eats food, just not enough to keep his weight up it seems.

We have come home the last couple weekends and we have been able to see, chat with and visit many of you. It is always nice to be able to do that. I think our visits and all of you, give us strength to continue on this journey. I am really thankful for that. Chris seems to perk up with your fist bumps, hugs and words of encouragement. Thank you all. Love and hugs and fist bumps! 😊

  1. I have to tell you that when I saw Chris and you at the early Saturday service my heart leaped for joy! You had said that you were going to try to come and I was so happy to see you there. You and Chris give me strength and encouragement each time I see you, it is a quiet but strong, thank you for that.:) As always if there is anything we can do for either one of you all you need to do is ask. Love to you both!
