Make My Day...Punk!


Postal??

Kvetching is putting it mildly on how Rene reacted when she discovered that both her red and white counts are low. She had to get two shots yesterday; one for each type of blood so this means her bone marrow will be "talking" for a bit! I get to take her tomorrow for more shots, she ain't happy!

Reality Check

I am amused by Rene's desired to re-engaged with life as she progresses through her treatments. Since is coming to her very last hospital visit, she only wants one thing...her way or the highway! She is telling her body to get with the program and produce blood counts so she can get going!

I need this because my mother is 360 degrees opposite of this behaviour. Since my father's death three weeks ago, she is going through her mourning period. Life right now is very empty and the fact that she can't see or talk to him anymore is troubling. In time she will develop the desire to live life to the fullest, right now she is not ready.
