Rest and Heal, Rest and Heal
That seems to be my mantra right now… rest and heal, rest and heal. All the signs are good. My last blood test showed everything within normal range, my red blood cells are going great… don’t change a thing you are doing the nurse says. As far as feeling better? That gets pushed further away. A week after treatments are completed (next Tuesday) you should start feeling improvement, I am told. Patience. So I rest and heal, rest and heal.
Yesterday we bought a boxed DVD set of old Peter Falk Columbo TV programs… the first series. They are wonderful psychological brain twisters and Columbo always gets the culprit, no matter how clever they are. Good watching. And I never watched the Anne of Green Gables (Prince Edward Island) series, so that is a good change of pace. And no matter that I am now here in the USA receiving excellent healthcare, Canada is always where I have most felt free.
Thank you all for your e-mails, comments, caring and support. It helps, especially now when I just want to feel like a human being again. Rest and heal. Rest and heal. Patience.

It is good to hear you are doing so well. Your treatments will soon be over and then you will start feeling better.
Enjoy the Colombo series.

Looks like we both are learning this mantra for different reasons.
Enjoy Ann of Green Gables too...I also like the series when it was aired...Prince Edward Island is so beautiful.
Keeping you close to my thoughts, hopes & prayers.
Soon...soon, and hopefully, by then when you are feeling more rested, Spring will have finally found it's way to the Pacific Northwest and you'll be able to wander outside to smell the wonderful scents and breath in that beautiful fresh air.
Holding you close...SA
Your blog posts mean a great deal to me, and I want to thank you for writing. I am on the east coast, in Vermont. There are only a few blogs I read regularly, including yours, a 29 year old bike racer, and a 26 year old woman trying to find her way in the world. All three of you write in a way that shares what's real.
I hope it is a good and beautiful springtime.
Kate
