Back in the USA

     After a very restful Shabbat , and just a few days after my return form  my two week trip to Israel to visit my children ,friends and family I find it vert difficult to put in words what I am feeling right now.Especially with my health and not knowing when  I will be able to make that trip again.

    I cannot thank my children enough for without them it never would have happened.It's amazing how quickly two weeks go by.The trip was fantastic even had the opportunity to go camping.

Even did some cooking for my kids per their request.Got some great photos and memories to share

 But here it is 2 1/2 years later and things have changed.Though in general felling great my health definitely impacted on my trip to an extent.my stamina ,ability to shlep things around and even my strength is not what it was prior to my diagnosis and treatment.the reality of my severe sensitivity to the sun was evident especially after being do careful with using sunscreen ,reapplying it multiple times during the  day & wearing a hat all the time ,I still got a really bad blistering sunburn on my arms,that taught me a very valuable lesson.But no complaints overall it was an experience I would repeat tomorrow .looking forward (I think) to getting back to a normal routine.

Getting ready for my big trip

I know it's been a few weeks since I posted on my blog.things have been busy at work and at home.I had a wonderful trip out to the west coast about 3 weeks ago,We drove down to Santa Cruz had a blast and drove back up the pacific coast highway back to the Bay Area .work has been really busy.My Zelboraf is still kicking my butt,actually had a really bad gout attack last actually put be out of commission for a couple of days,but thank g-d I'm feeling better.
   Packing for my two week trip  to Israel for Passover is always a challenge especially with all the new regulations with weight restrictions etc.
But all of this would not have been possible without the love and support of my friends and family .a Especially Motti for being my rock here at home and for by children in Israel Dovid,Lital,Aryeh &Matla who raised money by running the Tel Aviv Marathon  for my company's and my trip.I can't wait to post about  my trip and to share my photos and adventures.
