How do you say "Thank You , for the multitude of support I have received? The countlesswell wishes via this blog, the beautiful cards via snail mail, the phone callsand above all the personal visits at our residence. Let me assure you that every contact lifted my spirits in a special way allowing me to forget my predicament for a short time and feel that healing is possible. Without your daily support i am not sure if I had progressed as nicely. Carol and Hillary deserve special praise fo continuing the blog while my brain learned the QWERTY layout again. Forgive me if there are typing mistakes, i am still adjusting.
The knowledge that you are my ever present support gives me the strength to "hang in there"!
The visits from my daughters and brothers were special along with my stays with my sister Lis. It is amazing the amount of strength you receive from a personal visit. The same has to be said from the many meals we received from you. It seemed that at times an additional refrigerator would have come in handy.
For the lack of an eloquent response of gratitude, let me just offer a simple "Thank you!
I will try to keep up the blog myself as good as I can and I am looking forward to your posts as before.
Quick look ahead!
HAPPY MOTHER's DAY to all your mothers amongst us. Hopefully, the people close to you will spoil you beyond belief.
Next week will be busy around here.
Tomorrow, Carol will return fro her drum camp and I will drive myself to Athens again.
Tuesday, it will be dental office as the cancer treatment requires extra cleaning
Wednesday, it will be the oncologist and a return to chemotherapy( something I am not looking forward to. Even though it is only a five day cycle it is a stressful time period.
The first days of June will call for a return to Duke and an array of tests, including MRI
Then my sister Gerta will visit with my grand niece Laura. That should be a lot of fun as we are trying for a short stay at Hilton Head. Somewhere in between we have to schedule a lunch in Athens and a goodbye get together with Tatiana, who will relocate to Vienna, Austria! Lucky girl!
So you can see that there is life after dialysis or even brain cancer
