Tuesday

I didn't get much sleep but I think it's just because of everything on my mind and not sleeping next to David. I actually went to sleep very early because I couldn't keep my eyes open. By 8 o'clock Mom & I were down for he count...or so we thought. First we were awakened by Rabbi Twersky, who was sent to say hello and introduce himself by Rabbi Klein from the Bikur Cholim. After sending him away, and falling back to sleep, we were awakened again at 8:45 by another Rabbi delivering dinner for Bikum Cholim. The dinner, though beautiful looking, went directly into the refrigerator. Then we fell asleep again, and the night nurse and her assistant stopped by to introduce themselves. It was pretty much a done deal at that point.

I'm not allowed to eat or drink anything yet because I'm waiting for the procedure to insert the central line. I'm hoping it will be early because I could REALLY use a cup of coffee. Once the line is in, they start the chemo. Also, once the line is in, they no longer have to stick me everytime they need to draw blood so, that will be welcome. Meanwhile, it's just beginning to get light and the view is beautiful.

  1. That means that today you are that much closer to being well. Your riches clearly can be measured by how many friends you have and all their prayers...besides, Far Rockaway girls are naturally tough!
