I feel like I have been on an 8 month sabbatical! The platelet count (my nemesis) was 125 so we had chemo yesterday (!) and I feel fine today but a tiny bit flushed (first tie for the flushing) . Sometimes I feel better on chemo than at any other time -- why is that?Shouldn't ask I guess.
I am beginning work again on ChainFreeNation.org which should be live within the month. . of course, I said that last year and it never got completed. I think I was a bit burned out plus the pain I had then was just too much. My last chemo is supposed to be May 12th. Let's keep our fingers and toes crossed.
Thanks for all your prayers, thoughts and cards and support and well, the list could go on and on. I treasure your friendship. I'll still be posting since the next step is the surgery on the reconnect, hopefully, but not as often. Maybe once a week or so.
I also selfishly love to post and vent and share what life is about here. I told a long-time editor friend "It keeps me in publishing!" ;-)
Bland and Norm came for dinner last night. They were going to buy a house at Starview Heights so we were going to be neighbors and were very excited about that since we love them so. Then he lost his job at Richmond Hill as the general manager and then he renewed his commercial Real Estate license and sold our B&B and has now followed us to St. Augustine where he is the GM (staff of 21) for a 23-room B&B right on the water. Great place. Casablanca Inn. We had some great laughs about B&B land and we gave him a big ole' Alaskan hat for his return visits to Asheville -- from 90 to 50? HA!
We also took our second Historical visit/tour to Ormond Beach with Betty. It was also enjoyable. Good Day. Today had lunch with the Ellwood ladies. Fun time!!!
Love,
Peggy
Hey Peggy—So glad that chemo is going well . . . at least your platelets cooperated this time! Sounds like you are having fun, as usual, with Bland and Norm and the Ellwood ladies! Ormond Beach sounds beautiful so post some pics if you get a chance. May 12th will be here before you know it! And then on to the reconnect—great!! Hope you, Patrick, Reese and Allie all have a super weekend. How is Reese’s foot/leg doing? Hope he’s feeling better and his hot spot is healing! :) Michelle
