Dave and I left the farm at 10:00 this morning for my 2:00 appointment at Siteman Cancer Center in St Louis. Today was treatment #212. We are thankful the interstates are clear from the weekend’s winter storm.
The nurse who accessed my port and drew my labs has been a nurse at Barnes for 2 years but worked there the previous 8 years in food service as she earned her education. I so appreciate health care professionals who choose to work in oncology. It cannot be easy.
There are two days left of this month and one more medical appointment. I don’t have to return to St Louis until Feb 17 and I’m thankful for the reprieve. I have a temporary crown on my molar and digestive issues have been much lighter the last week. I also got to see all three of our adult children in the last week, which makes my heart happy. It’s still daylight and we are already on the way home. I expect to get home to Madi Moo around 8:00 pm. Two of our kids split dog-sitting duties today so I know she does not miss us at all. 
I am not in control.
