Getting Better

Hello all my dear friends.  I am feeling some better today, though the antibiotics are making me nauseous.  I don’t feel as sick from the infection and the welps appear to be trying to heal up.  I haven’t done anything all day because I didn’t feel like it.  I was very weak this morning so I just rested.  After lunch I began to perk up some and had a little more energy.  Tonight we went out to dinner with some friends and it was very relaxing.  It is good to get out when you are sitting around all day…I have found that to be true when I have chemo as well.  The trick is in knowing the balance of home and out time.  We are getting better at it…and Bill is ever the watchdog making sure I don’t overdo it.

We are going to attempt to go to Berry tomorrow (Sat.) for the day.  I figure sitting in the car isn’t that much different from sitting in my chair.  It will be a fun day.  We may not get to stay very long if I get too tired but we will get to see former classmates and professors.  Hannah and Aaron will get a taste of Berryland.  I probably won’t write tomorrow but you can check in on Sunday to hear all about the trip.

  1. Hey Michelle,
    I’m glad Mom told me about your blog! It’s a good way to keep in touch with what’s going on. I know it must get old telling a bunch of people the same things over and over on the phone.

    Your writing is great, as usual. I knew you would use this experience as an opportunity to write……very therapeutic for yourself and others.

    Hope you have a good trip to Berry!

    Your sister-in-law,

  2. Gail, Sorry I thought Bill had told you about my blog already. I enjoy writing it all down and it does help those that want to keep up without wanting to hound me. I never mind when people want to know, it is part of the journey for me. Glad to hear from you. Michelle
