Rita is back in Portland, OR

Sorry for the late update. The good news is that Mom was able to travel to Portland, OR, on her own this time!!! No help needed from those "bothersome kids"...heee heee
The truth is, the BBBD treatment is really helping. She is able to recall people and places almost as well as she was able to before treatment started in November of 2005.

I helped my mom get everything ready for the trip and then drove her to the airport at 4:30am on Tuesday morning for the long trip out. She arrived in Portland, OR, Tuesday late afternoon, and made her way to her hotel near OHSU. She was admitted at OHSU Wednesday for tests. Mom will begin the BBBD treatment/procedure Thursday morning and again Friday morning. We are pretty sure she will be released from the hospital on Saturday, but may delay the flight until Sunday if needed for recovery.

It is always hard to plan the return flights. We will get it right one of these days.

Please keep my mom in your prayers during her BBBD treatment and her safe return home.
Thank you.
