I sent out my radiation schedule Tuesday July 17 and my dance card was full Wednesday! thanks to all my great friends for helping me and Ted with this, as I go every day to Tom Baker Cancer Centre for treatment. Kudos first two weeks to Joy, Sally and Karen. It's great to visit with them all en route.
July 31: Some sad news today. Our friend Gayle Laird, 58, died while hiking in the Rockies last weekend. She roomed with our old pal Anita GilderHenneberry (now in Victoria) in Edmonton when they were both students. She was an exceptional woman, larger than life, amazing hiker and absolutely intrepid X-C skier. Who can forget the tale of her and her friend Nancy holed up at the 'Wolverine Hotel' skiing in to Assiniboine Naisset huts? (They got lost, could not get into the Bryant Creek Hut, spent the night in a tree bole, and a wolverine ate their sandwiches!)
I'll miss her competitive camaraderie at the Scrabble board on cosy Norseman Ski Club weekends.
