We had a very nice weekend. At the spur of the moment, with mom home from work for the weekend to care for Kaylin, Beth and Wally decided to come home to Defiance. We had a nice visit, dinner at Bobby E's (the chicken parm still taste darn good to me), and Sunday lunch at the DRMC. It was good to spend time with them without the entire tribe. And I am sure they felt the same way, as Beth is a full time baby sitter for the most part. They had a chance to see the condo and put their ideas into the mix. A very pleasant weekend indeed.
This week is the third Gemzar infusion, along with the oral Zeloda. This is actually the first time I have been in that situation. The first month was both for a week, then a week off. The second month during week three, the Zeloda was pulled because of mouth sores. With the reduced dosage of Zeloda, I have no mouth sores (yet), very little slime (yet), and am able to eat regular food (as of today). Nonetheless, I have very little energy and tire quickly. There are several things I would like to do this week, we will see how it goes. I have been able to get out some, but not to the extent that I would like to. We have had snow cover now for a couple of weeks, unusual for Ohio. This week's temps are to be well below normal, so there won't be much melting for another week. Winter still has us in a tight grip.

Dear Richard: How lovely to have a quiet visit with Beth and Wally. Winter has her grip on all of us...here in Palm Harbor, we have one lovely, almost warm, sunny day and then then the next we are back to no sun, misty rain and today a fog heavy enough that we cannot see the pair of Bald Eagles trying to protect their nest on the cellular tower near our condo....the Ospreys are behaving as if they don't want Bald Eagles moving into the neighborhood!
ReplyDeleteMay your strength return in the days ahead, and soon, Spring must sprung...sprang? Marion
Won't spring be glorious! We had 2 female and 1 male Cardinal in our yard this past week and I've been noticing birds practicing their sprint-time songs! Bring it on!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a great weekend with Beth and Wally! I too am ready for some spring weather! Though February is the shortest month of the year, it usually seems like the longest, doesn't it? I hope the side effects are few with this round of meds! Take care!
