The journey continues, but I feel I'm in the homestretch fighting and recovering from this illness. Radiation should begin before the end of the month and will last for about 6 weeks. All treatments should be over by Spring Break! (which in Alabama is the end of March). Celebrations will be ushering in the spring around the Theus household. :-)

The last year has been one of the toughest we've weathered as a family. What it has shown us, though, is how large our family really is. The four of us are not in a small little row boat navigating the rough waters. We are actually on quite a large barge with lots of loving, praying, supporting extended family. And the waters of this illness are beginning to calm. Thank you!
Oh, and for all of you who have asked, there is an updated meal schedule for us. (http://www.takethemameal.com -- username: theus -- password: lisa). Thank you for feeding us, too! You have no idea what a blessing it has been, not only to eat the great food you've brought, but to enjoy your presence in our home as well, no matter how brief your visit. :-)
