Tuesday lunch

Today, some women from church came to make Amy one of her favorite dishes, causa.  It is a dish of layered mashed potatoes and vegetables with avocados and tuna.  It's quite good.  Amy sat in the rocking chair in the kitchen while they worked, which she enjoyed.  

Ben isn't pictured because he went out to a cebichería (fish restaurant) with friends for the last day of summer vacation.  School begins tomorrow.  They are not thrilled by this.

Amy has had less headaches, but she is getting weaker, especially on her left side (as expected, since the tumor is on the right side).  We had to carry her to this fine meal, but she was able to walk upstairs to her bedroom to sleep afterwards.
