Today we flew out and made it to the the Seattle area to visit with my side of the family. My parents have been SO glad to see Lisa (they haven't seen her since before the diagnosis) and to see how well she is doing.

It was a very long day, having to get up WAY too early for a WAY too early morning flight. But it went well, and though naps were necessary after we settled in at my parents, we had a nice dinner and visit and are off to a wonderful start. We'll be with my family for five days, and have five days to ourselves, which is going to be a nice mix.
