Recovery is one of the toughest things I have ever done. But being home makes the next trip up the hill seem more bearable.

Back home in my own bed after 11 days...
son Jono and Deborah went to a broadway show while I stayed home Saturday evening with neighbor babysitters watching college football on mute. Then to everyone's amazement, especially mine, I slowly walked up two flights of stairs to my bed. Got up the next morning when I wanted to, with no nurses waking me, to a pancake breakfast with Jono before he took off again for China.
Recovery is one of the toughest things I have ever done. But being home makes the next trip up the hill seem more bearable.
In early December the surgeons will decide when chemo starts again. Meanwhile keep those good wishes coming.

That is remarkable, Lynn!
ReplyDeleteThe progress you are making and the determination you are showing are just incredible.
Looking forward to seeing Deborah later in the week when she's back in Austin.
Keep takin' the stairs...

Lynn, so great hearing your voice on Sunday. Thank you for keeping up this blog-it keeps us all in touch with you. I don't have your address in Portland-will you post it or send it to me via email?

Lynn, you are making great progress! Maybe we can see you and Deborah at the December PWTC meeting/holiday celebration? You don't have to run for president (several nominated you) since Cindy just stepped up to take a year's term. Best wishes as you improve every day. -=Alison=-
ReplyDeleteGood job, Lynn. Amazing what the human body can tolerate. Still praying for you and I plan on coming for a ride.
ReplyDeleteHey, Lynn, keep on keepin' on. Beneath your kind and strong demeanor, I'm realizing you've got a tough old mean streak (developed over the years of landlord/tenant battles?) and a ton of patience.
ReplyDeletePortland weather here today -- cool and rainy. Lots of yellows in the trees. Austin's 3 days of fall colors...
Best,
Clint
