So here we are in Hawaii in an absolutely idyllic location overlooking a beautiful small ocean cove. Lovely room, comfy bed, serene surroundings, and a kind, attentive, and loving husband to be sure I get around safely. I use a cane or walker now and am trying to learn to walk again after the brain surgery in March messed up my left side so badly. I am trying to learn to walk faster than the beautiful little baby who lives behind us. But she is already way ahead of me with her growing brain….all as it should be.

A couple of weeks ago I was told that I might only have 3-6 months left if I chose no more treatment. That’s when we decided not to postpone our vacation plans further. And we also decided go ahead with the laser brain surgery. Because in spite of all the problems in our world, it is still a beautiful world and I am not ready to say good-bye to the lovely outdoors yet. Or to my loving and beloved family and friends.

Audrey’s dare

On AUDREY’s dare, here I share my western fare…
(dreamed up in lala land in the hospital last week, as I wished I were anywhere else)
Also dedicated to Pampoo’s fans–you know who you are. He sang me many cowboy songs, all far exceeding this.

Escape Plan
Let me leave the sounds of this hospital drone,
Set myself safely on the path to home.
Ain’t got a car, but get me a hoss,
Lift me up and toss me acrost.
Together we will trot the trail
Through the crick, beneath the hail,
Ending up at my front door
Away from the medics forevermore.

Yeah, we have some ranching in our ancestry. :) And I may be losing my mind. But Audrey “double-dog dared” me to print this. I don’t really know what that kind of dare is, but I have two dogs, and I stand by them.
