Good morning, World!
Today I had chemo. While awaiting to see if my reactions will be mild or severe, let’s reflect over th wonderful time experienced by our family, last weekend. Not a moment of quiet was heard in our house while Ravi’s imagination played non stop with her uncles, who still enjoy being two wild and crazy guys when they can bust loose from being responsible adults.
Listening to the three of them cavorting throughout the house kept a smile on my face that just wouldn’t quit, though the rest of me had not yet re-energized enough from chemo, two weeks back, to leave my bed except for meals. Then on Sunday afternoon, I found myself sitting on the living room couch, which came as a surprise, because my spirit had spent so much emotional energy on Saturday that I’d thought not to be able to pick up my head upon awakening the next day. As that was not the case, I’m guessing each day away from my last powerful infusion of chemo sees me generating more energy than the day before. And being that today was chemo day, once again, we’ll see how well my blood cells tolerate this most recent infusion since I received the less powerful of the two drugs, which had knocked me out (literally), two weeks back.
Barry drove back to Costa Mesa on Monday afternoon. Now that he’s fully vaccinated, he plans to drive home more often.
How gratifying it is to experience another family love-in each time we five come together! Upon reflection, I see a young mother of three active boys, doing her best to raise a trio of youngsters to grow up to become each other’s best friends. And if we fast forward to right now then with each of my son’s verbal admission, I’m happy to say that they’d say—Mission Accomplished and then some😊
