I received a text a few days ago from a friend which included the joke going around about returning 2021 after being dissatisfied with it during the seven day free trial period. Itβs hard to look at what has happened during the start of this year and have any good feelings about the next 12 months.
I believe that we need to rely on hope, wishes, prayers or whatever affirming process you use to settle your mind. I have spent the last ten months hoping.
Hoping that the diagnosis was wrong, hoping that the drug would do what it should, hoping that my body would reject the disease, hoping that I could manage the side effects. I have received the hope, wishes and prayers of others enthusiastically and humbly and I think we all just need to rely on that hope and the good will and intentions of others.
Hopefully, we will settle down as a society and return to those activities that make life fulfilling, rewarding, and normal
Today I am working through the apprehension that always comes before the week upcoming. CT and MRI tests tomorrow. Labs and blood work Monday. Results, Consult, and continuing infusion Wednesday.
I hope to have good news to share afterwards
Stay Safe Be Kind
