I Can't Believe I Ate the Whooooole Thing!

Another day with no noticeable tumor growth. Yay!

Graham got off to a slow start today. It's normal now for him to sleep until about 1pm or so, but usually at that point he's fairly alert. But today, even after sleeping for so long, he was still really fuzzy. I was hoping that visitors would perk him up.

John and Erika came by in the afternoon to introduce us to their gorgeous new dog Shiloh. What a great dog! Shiloh is already housebroken and knows lots of cool commands, because he had just about graduated from guide dog (for the blind) school, but then flunked out for being slightly too timid.

Is that a gorgeous face or what?!! And look how he's smiling and posing just right for the camera.

Speaking of timid, here's Micki hiding behind a plant,
doing her best to keep some distance from Shiloh.

That evening, Ed and Donna came to visit. They used to live across the street from us in North Carolina, and now we're all living in California!

Unfortunately, Graham was still kind of out of it, and wasn't sure if he would even stay awake long enough for me to serve dinner. He said he wasn't at all hungry. Oy!

Ed and I went to Sundance Steakhouse and brought home some amazing prime rib dinners (Thanks, Ed!). Luckily, Graham was willing to attempt to eat a little. Donna is really vivacious and a great storyteller, and Graham was so interested in listening to Donna, that he didn't notice that he was GOBBLING DOWN his entire prime rib and most of the baked potato. It was the most he's eaten at a meal in several weeks. Donna and Ed, can you come to dinner every night? :-)
