Back From Vacation - Victoria, British Columbia

We’re back from our vacation to Victoria and it was so nice to get away. As I said before, we haven’t been away for more than a long weekend since Rachael was pregnant with Keegan - around Jan 07! And since he was born, Rachael hasn’t been away from him for more than 6 hours. We needed this and it was just a great trip. We had some really nice evenings - great dinners, went horseback riding one day, went to an amazing garden called Butchart Gardens (if you’ve been there you know what I mean) and did some shopping. The first day we were there we slept in until 8:30 which is LATE for us! The other mornings we were up a bit earlier. I’ve included a number of pictures in this post that will give you a good idea of the sites.
The weather could not have been more perfect. On day 1 we arrived to some very light sprinkles that cleared up within an hour - enough for us to walk around the inner harbor and then Thur-Sat was sunny and in the low 70’s. On Sunday, when we arrived at the airport and were waiting on our gate, it was pouring down rain! I think God had planned our time pretty well there.
Health-wise, I did pretty good. I had a little bit of weakness on my left side at one point but it cleared up pretty quickly. Of course I brought all of my meds in my carry-on - no issues at customs either way. When we got home the kids really missed us. They (particulary Aidan) really missed us. Aidan was apparently counting down the hours. We sort of were!
So that’s all for now. I have a few appointments this week with my neuro-oncologist on Thursday and my Neurologist tomorrow. I don’t expect much to come from these but I will be interested in my neurologists input on the small focal seizures I’ve been having.

Hey-
Just looking at your blog. Came across the pictures of you two from BC. Rachael is soooo pretty! You’re a lucky man. You two look like you had a nice time and from speaking with Rachael - you did! Anyway, know that we’re always praying for you and you and your family are never far from our hearts or thoughts.
