Fibonacci’s Waiting Room

“Mary?”

Returning to earth, I gathered my book, coat, and fantasies, and headed for the pink paper gown.

First, let me say that Mary Blocksma's blog has helped me a great deal since I found it a couple of weeks ago.  Especially a night last week, when I awakened suddenly at 3 am and felt a significant increase in pain in my left breast.  I had been through 14 radiation treatments at that point and had felt some brief sharp pangs and soreness. But my breast was very hot and uncomfortable on my body.  So I thought after an hour of laying in bed thinking about my cancer: I bet Mary has something in her blog about pain.  And so I sat up in bed, cranked up my laptop ( blessedly the wireless internet connection worked) and logged on.  Lo and behold I go right to Day 20 and I feel pain.

 

thank you for being there for me.
