Galveston Getaway

Well, I am SUPER excited to say that next week is Mom's LAST chemo!!!!!!! We never thought this day would come! To mentally prepare, Mom and Dad decided to take a vacation over to Galveston this week. They were shocked when they arrived, however, to find mounds of festering seaweed piled on the beaches! Apparently this biblical seaweed inundation requires special equipment to remove it from the beachfront, and they only have ability to remove it one section at a time. Dad was excited that their section of the beach got cleared off today, and he rented a beach umbrella and some beach chairs for later this afternoon. Yesterday Dad played golf and Mom rode along in the golf cart, spotting different wildlife such as rose spoonbills and turtles. They are exploring the wharf area this morning and checking out some local shops.

Last weekend Aunt Fina came to visit for a couple days. Her and Mom snuck off to the mall for a couple hours and were surprisingly able to do a little damage :) I'll be arriving on Monday and staying for a couple weeks through Mom's last chemo.
