Photography has become a hobby for Joel, and he’s really gotten into it. I’m not talking about taking some pictures; I’m talking different lenses and lighting and framing and other stuff I know nothing about. Joel does a lot of nature and scenery photographs, but he had this idea to do a portrait session with [...]

Today I saw my oncologist, and I think it was a good visit. At the very least, I liked what he had to say. He thinks that my BMT doctor is micromanaging me and going into overkill with certain things. First, he does not think I should have the PET/CT follow-up for my previous oral [...]

I’m not really sure where to start because there’s so much since that has happened since I blogged on Tuesday.  I guess I’ll just start and see where it leads. Hopefully, I’ll make sense and not go off on too many tangents. Wednesday I made tons of phone calls, and got some good test results. [...]

This week is a bit different. Friday is my doctor day versus Tuesday because it’s time for my first monthly visit back in Tampa at Moffitt. We’re leaving Thursday and my appointments start at 9AM on Friday. Scheduled are lab work and a meeting with my BMT doctor. I expect a pretty uneventful visit – [...]

We’ve done more work since then. We added a Spiderman  poster and a lot more Cars stickers including a mural poster. We [...]

This is a super busy week for appointments. Yesterday (Monday) I had an ultrasound ordered by my OB just to make sure that my ovaries are okay. There’s a question as to whether or not I might go into early menopause. Then, I had my first PT here. It’s been weeks so even though a [...]

G is for the cancer support Group I attended at Christ Fellowship’s Royal Palm Beach campus last night. I plan to go back next month; I found the group to be positive and very nice. There was at least 15 people there. Most were survivors; some were currently going through treatment, and a couple were [...]

I know the title’s a bit abrupt. It will probably jolt Joel; I know he doesn’t like the “C” word. I usually say I was sick or ill, but today is a cancer-based day for me. I have labs this morning and I’m going to a cancer group at the Christ Fellowship Royal Palm location [...]

After the Sabbath, at dawn on the first day of the week, Mary Magdalene and the other Mary went to look at the tomb. There was a violent earthquake, for an angel of the Lord came down from heaven and, going to the tomb, rolled back the stone and sat on it. His appearance was [...]
