Well, my aunt has gotten all her test results back. The cancer is stage 4, lung and bone. The doctor did say it does appear to be slow growing. They said with chemo, she could gain 1-2 years. They are recommending 16 chemo treatments, over 16 weeks time. She is thinking about it. It was most likely caused by her heavy smoking for 60+ years.

On the home front, we have decided to sell or trade our 5th wheel for a bumper hitch (which is what we had to begin with). It just has more advantages. Right now we are limited to only being able to pull it with the pickup. The girls are starting to do some horse shows and the pickup can't pull the horse trailer and the camper at the same time, as both are 5th wheel/gooseneck. We are also limited in the pickup with the number of passengers. If we need to, we can pull a bumper hitch with the suburban, or even rent a van if extended family were to go with us. If we get lucky, we can maybe trade even for one 3 feet shorter in a bumper version. Also, it would be easier on the fuel, and we could pull it with the gas suburban instead of the diesel truck which right now is running close to $5 a gallon.
