That's our Curt

When we got home last night (VA RV hookups) Curt noticed that a better spot was open. We were set up on pavement and wasn't very level. He said that he would move the trailer in the morning. He was too tired right then. Jeff Johnson came over to check out our hot water heater to see if it can be fixed. He noticed that our truck wasn't there. I had parked it in the vacant space so no one could move in there. He told Curt that he would move it NOW. I was sure glad but of course Curt didn't want him to have to move it. We made Curt stay out of the way and Jeff and I got it moved and set up. It was so nice to wake up and have lawn, a tree and a level place to have the trailer! We put the table and chairs outside so we have a much bigger kitchen.

We are here at Huntsman Cancer Hospital ( HCH) this morning. Curt got his meds changed for the day and I came to the media room to finish my reports for my exchange students. He is getting used to having a backpack with him constantly. We are going home in a few to just rest. Most of the days here have been spent here at HCH. It will be good to have a day that we don't have classes, or meetings! Curt is very positive and happy. He is an inspiration to me and helps me when I get frustrated or sad. What a guy. He also keeps the nurses entertained. Yesterday was his first time in the infusion room. It has windows but the blinds are always down. The windows only go to the hall way so people can look in when they walk by if the blinds are up. Of course we had them up. He doesn't care who sees him. A doctor walked by and came in and complained to the head nurse that there was a patient in there and everyone could see what was going on! The nurse came and talked to Curt and then put up a sign."This patient is aware that he can be seen" It really was pretty funny and Curt was just waving at everyone as they walked by. That's our Curt!

  1. I would have loved to see that sign with Curt in the background grinning and waving. I hope you took a picture.

    We are thinking of you and glad you have been able to stay optimistic and smiling through all this. We love you!
