Today's Cross to Bear


Seems everyday there is some symptom to put up with. Some of the old ones drop out or lessen only to be replaced by new ones. Today's version is shaking chills and tremors from the Ara-C. Apparently it is to be expected but it sure has made it tough to sleep. But I am feeling a bit less nausea- a thing to celebrate!!!

My mom is here now so everything will be okay. I will draw much love and comfort and fortitude from her. She is the strongest woman I know. And I really appreciate her leaving her husband who just had surgery of his own to be here with me.

Best thought for today: being on that rhodo walk with Susan and Donna, seeing the flame azaleas and pinkey purple blooms all over that mtnside; thanks for the photos guys!

Hi Tree, I'm cheering for you. Truly, you are a warrior.

Here's a story diversion for you. I read on the birding listserv that a manatee was seen and photographed around the Bogue Inlet Pier in Emerald Isle this past weekend. Can you imagine visiting Pam and Cindy and seeing a manatee in the water! I had no idea that was possible.

Love to you and Holly - marty
