Day 200. It has been quite a journey so far. We are thankful to those of you who are still following along with us. We are grateful for your support and prayers.
Our family went to the zoo yesterday, there was a break in the weather and a small window of opportunity with Katie. Her levels were good on Friday and the chemo usually takes a couple of days before it fully kicks in. Plus, we were all in need of a little "joy." We have been couped up too long. So we put sunscreen, a hat, and a mask on Katie and went. We only stayed two hours - that was all Katie could do. She was wiped out, but she had a good time. This phase we are in, will progressively get worse as we go along, so we "did" while we could "do."
Donald P. Halstrom said the two scriptures, 'Men are, that they might have joy' (2Nephi 2:25) and 'for it must needs be, that there is an opposition in all things' (2 Nephi 2:11) are not contradictory; they are complementary." ("Turn to the Lord," Ensign, May 2010, 79). We could not experience the one, without experiencing the other.
Glad you guys got to go to the zoo. Just love that zoo!

So glad that the stars aligned to afford all of you a much-needed break to have fun and a chance to enjoy the incredible weather. And glad you got to "do" before you have to hunker down and weather another storm. Hang in there.
