Oh, Mara, I’m just so sorry to hear about this. It really doesn’t matter if old friends don’t get to see each other often; the connection is always there. I miss you and remember so many good times growing up in Massena and all those special times with you and your family. My thoughts and prayers are with you.

I’ve been pretty well swamped with appointments this week, and I haven’t had much time or energy for anything else. Today I start the infusions, and I’m hopeful that I’ll get into a routine with some space in between the medical stuff.

oh Mara, sounds tedious and uncomfortable. I do hope you are finding time and energy for fun things too

Okay, I was exaggerating, but I mean… what’s the worst that could happen? I could see it if she added “for a few days…” or something. BUT it’s what you feel comfortable with that counts, not what I think.

She didn’t strike me as anti-sex. She just thought that sex was in the “vigorous” category of exercise.

Fairly disappointed about you ending up outside the clotting margin, but as you say less poking and prodding, I guess. I’ve been browsing panix.chat.politics a bit lately and it still seems pretty reliably toxic, so maybe if they could find a way to administer it via saline drip… The nausea might be a bit much. I’m not even on chemo and it pretty much wears me out. Oh, and I think the anti-sex nurse should mind her own business.
