“Fast-Pass”…Be Careful What You Wish For

So…after I wrote about wanting a “Fast-Pass” a couple days ago (stop reading right now and refer to the previous post if you haven’t read it yet😉), I couldn’t help but contemplate what exactly I think that would look like if it actually could happen in real life. And after a couple days it cameContinueContinue reading ““Fast-Pass”…Be Careful What You Wish For”

“Fat-Suit”

I feel like I am wearing a “fat-suit”. I don’t know if it is actual fat or leftover chemo fluids or both, but I don’t like it at all. It’s as if I have about a 2 inch-thick coating on the outside of my body. I just know my real body is hiding underneath itContinueContinue reading ““Fat-Suit””

Overall, we managed to leave fairly unscathed. My husband was a bit blotchy from where someone missed some spots on hisContinueContinue reading “sunburns”

I had gotten it from a counselor so obviously, I had to buy her a new one to return to her. Besides, I really need  to readContinueContinue reading “More annoying insights on forgiveness…”

Strapped Down?

I’m back  in the hospital.  I’ve already cheered up the place with my lights and party swirls hanging from the ceiling.  I have no choice really. The nurses expect it and are disappointed when there is no ambiance. I have nurses and techs who aren’t even assigned to me who come by just to feelContinueContinue reading “Strapped Down?”

Blake Update #4

Good news from MMC today.  H is on the mend.  Up walking (gingerly), eating solid food (since yesterday – she likes pancakes, but I’m recommending chili), laughing, showering, peeing, etc.  God is good.  The acute danger we faced last week seems to be past.  We cannot tell you how much the prayers and notes andContinueContinue reading “Blake Update #4”
