I had a major breakthrough yesterday! Not only did I trim my fingernails, but for the first time in about 10 months, I managed to trim my toenails! One step forward….
It started raining about 4 am this morning and has pretty much been a downpour, steady rain, or simply a drizzle all day today.
Here’s the 5 pm weather map. Florida is under there somewhere. Fort Lauderdale has had 2.03 inches and Hialeah has had 4.97. That’s just today. It’s still raining. The rest of the week is 80-90% chance of rain.
I called the director of nurses at the cancer center today and asked if I could send some Publix sandwiches to the staff and nurses at the infusion center. She was very appreciative. I have them ordered for delivery for Thursday from 10am to noon. I included a fruit plate and a carrot cake.
I did the same for the ground floor which are mostly nurses and physicians. I wanted to do something to say thank you for all the help they’ve been for the year’s time of treatment. Everyone has been great and I will miss them if I don’t have any more treatments.
I got a call from Holy Cross to schedule a MUGA scan. I didn’t think that was going to happen so I need to converse with Dr. Velez about why if we are not doing any more Herceptin treatments.
Today was physical therapy day. I wore my new boot which took a little getting use to. Shannon put me through a full workout but was mindful of my left ankle.
I was going to take the PT people some homemade chocolate cookies but I didn’t bake them long enough and they were too soft. I like them that way but they don’t transport well. I still have some dough so I make try again for Friday. Nothing like giving health care people practicing a healthy life style cookies with too much sugar, butter, and gluten.
Stay tuned!
