A BRIEF CHAT WITH MARILYN

Perhaps I am misleading you from the start. Marilyn and I have had just a few telephone conversations over the years. None of them has actually been brief, unless you consider an hour and a half brief. This week was no exception. We have a lot of interests and a lot of opinions (as you … Continue reading A BRIEF CHAT WITH MARILYN

UPDATE!

It isn't looking good. It would appear that the tumor in my breast has spread into my bones. I've got another scan -- this one a very specific PET scan AND they can't schedule me until the 17th. I bet if I were a pitcher for the Red Sox they'd find time sooner. If one … Continue reading UPDATE!

AND SO IT GOES

Sharing my world 25th August The surgeon was pretty encouraging. She thinks (as do I) that this is not a recurrance but a new growth. Not the offspring of the two previous tumors, but an outlier. Or whatever they call it. I've got another, more focused ultrasound on Friday, but I will meet the whole team … Continue reading AND SO IT GOES

ONE OF THOSE WEEKS?

There are weeks when the accumulation of events seems to be telling you something. A few days ago, I sliced off a bit of finger while slicing food. My back hurts. My right shoulder and wrist are sore. To put a finishing touch on the week, I seared my right hand about an hour ago. … Continue reading ONE OF THOSE WEEKS?

LIFE CAN GET MESSY

Right now, life is very messy. I've got anemia and it needs treatment. Garry's glaucoma seems to be acting up -- OR he's got some problem with migraines OR both are connected. The problem is, he can't see properly and that means, since I've got to get to the hospital and he has got to … Continue reading LIFE CAN GET MESSY

VACCINATION COLLAPSE

Garry and I got our second booster this week. Garry had almost no reaction. I thought I was on edge of death. It was a lot like the reaction I got after the second part of the original vaccination, but worse. I thought because Garry had no reaction, maybe I'd get lucky too. I was … Continue reading VACCINATION COLLAPSE

INSANITY!

I have to renew my driver's license. I don't need the new Federal version because we aren't going anywhere and in theory, you can get a "standard" license that won't let you get on an airplane after May 2023, but that's a long time off. I doubt I'm every getting on another airplane. If I … Continue reading INSANITY!

HEADING OUT FOR VACCINE PART TWO

I think I'll probably be off for the rest of the day. Hopefully, back up tomorrow. Maybe this injection will leave me fine. If not, I'll take a couple of days leave and rest a bit. At least COVID-19 will be off my table of worries!. I can then move my worries to "everything else." … Continue reading HEADING OUT FOR VACCINE PART TWO

COVID SARS 19 – NOT DETECTED

We have colds.  COVID-SARS 19 was Not Detected. We're good - until the next cold! I looked at our medical records and realized this is the fourth time we've been tested for COVID. About every third month we get "something" and get tested. Once everyone knows you don't have IT, you get zero sympathy. It's … Continue reading COVID SARS 19 – NOT DETECTED

AWAY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS … Marilyn Armstrong

We are taking a few days off, leaving in a few hours. I have posted new material while we are away, but it's possible I won't have time to answer comments. I'll try, but not making any promises. There's a LOT going on around here and we've been very busy, especially since we aren't normally … Continue reading AWAY FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS … Marilyn Armstrong
