THURSDAY

THURSDAY -  It was a kind of usual day just dragging my oxygen hose around with Fred around my neck....unless I am parked at my desk or in the bedroom. Except I keep getting one or the other tangled in my office chair wheels. What a mess I've made a couple times. 

We had a meeting today with Dr. Tiballi this afternoon. He says that I'm doing very well and will be done with the regimen of antibiotics at the end of next week. That's great. Somehow we got off into about 10-15 minutes of geek talk as he said that he owned a Palm Pilot when they first came out and carried it in a bag like my man bag similar to mine. Then the chat went to IBM PC's and Lotus 123 and on and on. Fun. Any of you that old?

The biggest issue I have to deal with is my lungs. I need to work at breathing exercises. It'll come along. Well, getting my energy back too; but I know that will be a longer-term project. 

I did have a lovely  chat this afternoon with my college roommate who has non-Hodgkins lymphoma and going through chemo. Ah, it makes me realize that as we get older there are more unexpected challenges that any of us can face tomorrow morning. 

That's it for today, folks. 
Love you all,
Bob
