Good News (we hope)

[FROM SUSAN]
 News came today (just after we opened gifts with Jessie, Matt, Amanda, and Alejandro) that the Proton Beam Therapy treatment in Philadelphia had been approved by Peter's insurance.  His "simulation" is set for next Thursday, January 2nd, and treatment will start about 10 days after that.  He, or we, will do an up-and-back for the 2nd.

We're just starting to figure out the logistics of getting to and fro, but, as we said earlier, Peter has places to stay.  I think the plan is for him to stay with his family there in the early days, and I'll mind the farm and my work here, then I'll go up once the treatment starts to take its toll on him and he'll need help.  Not sure when that will be, but we've been offered an apartment for that time.  So much good help.

Seems like we have abundant help down here, too.  Thanks to everyone who has offered to pitch in one way or another.  Feeling the abundance this Christmas Eve.

So, Merry Christmas, if you celebrate Christmas, and Happy Holidays if you don't.  Looks like a lot of New Year's Day will be in Philadelphia.
