Dr. Estrov told me to go home and live. I’m beginning to do just that. I feel so much better and have already gained back a few pounds. I'm actually enjoying eating. Today, Whitney arrived from New York City. Of course, it was the day of the two feet of snow in the northeast and I was worried that she will be delayed or not make it at all. Fortunately, her flight was one of the few that got out of JFK and she arrived just a few hours later than scheduled. She did have some harrowing experiences, though, like walking down 72nd Street in two feet of snow, lugging her luggage, at 5:00 in the morning, looking for a cab!
Whitney came home, we had lunch and then we start putting up the Christmas tree – something I didn’t think that I would do this year. I love putting up the tree as my ornaments represent my family’s life over the past 42 years. The ornaments bring back so many great memories. The tree is up, but there will be no presents under the tree this year. I am healing, but my blood is beginning to break down from the Chemo and I cannot go out in public places. No immune system so NO SHOPPING. That is a good thing – we have so much to be grateful for this year we don’t need to BUY presents. All of us being together is present enough this year.
