View From The Chair: Innings Three and Four Are Complete

Innings Three and Four
Are Complete

I have completed days three and four of chemo treatments a week ago. Only four days to go! It has taken almost the whole week to get back to "normal."  The side effects of the the treatments are not always pleasant, but what strikes me from where I sit today is the good fortune that continues to follow me.

Sharing the chairs around me this week are people much younger than I and much more ill than I. They experience much longer daily chemo treatments that last for months and months and months.   Their courage and endurance is inspriring. I can only imagine the struggles they face.     

So...thanks to all those who help...like Sylvia pictured here.

Thanks to Lisa and Jeremy and Ian, Remi and Bergen and Punky Brewster, who share their home with us.

Let us not forget that Dr. Charlat and his nurse practitioner cleared the way for these treatments as they performed and analyzed test results indicating that my heart was clear enought to proceed. I thank you for your guidance and expertise.


Thanks to all of you who send your good wishes...each one is a pick-me-up!

The pirates lay quiet for now, what will the scoreboard show in two more months? In the meantime...we review wines at http://www.dailywinos.com/. Check it out!
