What's happenin'?

A beautiful flower arrangement from our friends, Dorothy and Jim

Today is Day 14 of Treatment 2
Day 7 was THE HORRIBLE DAY
and it has been a long journey up to this day.
Now I am feeling much better,
I can actually stand up without feeling my legs are going to give way
 and I have accomplished some things...
mailed Andy's cookies, or really got them ready for mailing,
mailed stocking stuffers to NC,
a little gift to one sister - the other one is on hold,
(in all these cases my care giver runs all the errands among other things)
AND cleaned the TV (my reclining room) room.
That was a BIG ONE and I am SO PLEASED TO HAVE ACCOMPLISHED IT!

On Tuesday I went to have my PICC line cleaned and flushed.
Usually we go just a few blocks away to the extra mural clinic,
however the clinic was FLOODED on the day after THE HORRIBLE DAY.
So now the floors and about 2 1/2 feet of wall board are being replaced
and the extra mural is set up in the bowels of the hospital.  I wasn't sure
exactly where to find them, so I wasn't dropped off at the nearest entrance.
I was worried about the walk to get there, but I guess it was good for me since I did make it.

My next treatment is on December 30.
That should give me a good Christmas.
Afterwards I may just be horizontal for days,
but that's OK.  There are lots of people who are having a harder time.
"Thanks be to God for His UNSPEAKABLE GIFT."
