Monday

MONDAY

Pretty much a usual day. But, ‘usual’ days are just wonderful. I am feeling a wee better every day; but, honestly, I don’t want you to think that I’m even remotely close to grabbing a tennis racket. Maybe, in September. That’s my hope.

This morning we met with my pulmonary doctor. He had me doing an O2 test that meant walking for 6 minutes and I passed with flying colors. It stayed at 94 for most of the test. Quite a difference from a week ago. Plus, my chest x-ray from Friday showed that the lungs were definitely improving. We left quite encouraged.

Then back to the same building this afternoon to meet with my infection specialist. He was happy too. But, has reservations. He still does not know with certainty what caused the infection I had in the hospital. He wanted to do a lung test [invasive under anesthetic] but nobody else did. He is worried that there could be a lingering bacterial or other kind of infection that is still there; although he says a test now would probably not show anything.

What do you do? Four doctors who don’t all agree. We’ll see. But I am betting that Dr. Singh will push ahead with Chemo #3 on the 6^th.

I am eating OK. Some things taste right. Others don’t. And, getting work done at my computer. And, ‘taking it easy’ as Dr. Singh says to do.

We got a new knife from Amazon which I have been looking at. It’s a Mercer vegetable knife which my research says is best for all around chopping and endorsed by my cheffy brother-in-law and used in culinary schools. No, I’m not cooking yet. Nor, driving for that manner.

Tomorrow I’ve got a larger micro SD card and better reader coming for my drone. So maybe tomorrow I’ll work more on learning to fly my drone. I am just starting. I promise that before I fly by your house taking video, I’ll let you know so that you can put on whatever show suits your fancy.

Thanks for loving us, praying for us and helping us with rides again.
