Still chugging along

Meg's health continues pretty much as it was last month: she's generally OK but somewhat tired. The end of her clinical trial is now within sight (2/2/11), though we do not yet know what treatment (if any) she will have after that.

The first picture shows another minor milestone - it's Meg returning from performing in her first concert since returning to her orchestra this Fall. If you'd like to hear them, the main performance will be on Sunday, October 31st at  3PM at St. Mark's Cathedral in Seattle.

The other picture is of Meg, her sister and their mother on the beach in Santa Barbara. We've just returned from a visit (together with her brother and sister) to her parents, where we celebrated Meg's birthday. More pictures here, should you be interested.

We're starting to think about holidays and celebrations: Nick has his tickets to visit us over Thanksgiving, and both kids have tickets for Christmas, so Meg is starting on the Christmas cake this weekend. She'll also be celebrating the date of her surgery (December 14th) as "Recalled to life day".
