Thanks guys, I like the spa thing.
Su405, thanks for the cake thing but she can't have sugar and doesn't want anything sweet. Chemo drugs make everything taste like metal.
As far as a day off, I put my guns aside and do just about everything. Everything she used to do,yoga,work out she can't do now.
Doesn't want to go out to eat because she can't eat very much and gets sick afterwards.
Sniper7 when you said 5280 week, I was like 5280 armory having a sale. I'm there.[Muaha] I still have a one track mind.
Flowers, we get weekly from friends and family.
It's extra hard this year.[Bang]

Beautiful family. The present of Love is all there is.

Well, I would write a poem. Dont focus on getting words the rhyme. Just get the words down. You dont lack inspiration, tell her how she makes you feel. Put it in a simple envlope and give it to her.
Hold her hand.

You know, looking at the photos, you guys love the outdoors. I'm sure she doesn't have a great deal of strength, but what about some sort of outing. Just a thought, Seven Falls down here in the Springs, or Garden of the Gods. If she would require a wheel chair, the hills aren't too difficult to get her around. Perhaps if she just really likes one mountain town, take her there.

Think of your feelings for her.
How many ways she has improved your life.
Write it down.
Announce it publicly.
I did this a "few" years ago.
I put it in the "public notice" section of the newspaper.
Here it is over 30 years later, and she just made reference to it a bit ago. Must have made an impression. But considering the high cost of the newspapers these days, I would probably opt for putting it in the Thrifty Nickel or something like that.
I know you said no trips.......but.
My wife likes to go to the hot tubs up in Idaho Springs.
The private rooms of course.
Kicking back for an hour or so, with hot soothing water. Ahhhhhh
Well, to be honest, I like it too.
Thinking about surprising her with this, this weekend.
P.S.
Remember to take your own towels.

Sorry to hear about your wife's cancer- dad went through it - stay tough!
My idea:A 2 day thing over a weekend
:D
Day 1 - Family day! - have a (pseudo) suprise birthday party for her - you do it all - cook-clean-invite friends and family and have a day just for her to visit and laugh with her friends and family.... (serve (potent) margaritas! - if that is your thing)
Day 2: Movie day: Rent a bunch of movies the next day and decompress with her - just the two of you (and kids if you like) - pop popcorn - cuddle - enjoy each other - top it off with a bowl of baskin robbins world class chocolate ice cream - a massage for her - then... (really if you do this right... she falls asleep in your arms and then... take a moment for youself and thank God for the blessing she is to you).
Make sure to kiss her and tell her how much you appreciate her and all her efforts to make you marriage/life/etc work.
Again - remember how lucky you feel to have her in your life and imagine what you would be without her...
It sucks - (I only know my situation - not yours...)
Cherish the moments you have and hope for more.
Pop fought for 7 years - what a trooper - we were so proud. But he had something incurable - from Vietnam and the Agent Orange...
Your buddies here at Colo AR-15 are here for you - friend.
Don't forget that... we are here for you... "should you need us".

Great looking family!
And a happy dog!

Oh wait - epiphany:
Not movie day - TRAVEL VIDEO DAY!
Take her AROUND THE WORLD!
Most video stores have travel documentaries - rent them - arrange them in a 'destination' format - and take her around the world!
