AWOL

Sorry that I haven't posted anything for a few weeks. I had chemo for 6 days, and then came home for a few days to rest and then I went back up to the hospital (160 miles round trip) for a support group meeting for people who have lymphoma in the brain like me. I go to the local hospital to get labs drawn 3 mornings a week, and a dressing change on Monday. I have physical therapy twice a week and a nap every afternoon (2-hours). This new schedule has been busier than I expected.

Also, I was kind of bummed about my entire situation. It's difficult to be cheerful when I really can't go anywhere (I'm not allowed to drive yet.) If my white count is really low I have to wear a mask to keep any little germies from invading my body so that I don't get sick.

But, I've been doing alot of reading, mostly Anne Lamott books and an collection of stories by Flannery O'Connor which has been delightful.
