Things Happen
First, I had my surgery....well, sort of. Let's just say it was an 'open and close' scenario. But that's ok. Life is always about learning to play the hand that you've been dealt as sometimes options are not an option.
The good news is that I'm back on treatment. I've had my first treatment and so far...so good. It's been over two weeks since I had my ascites drained and that's a very good thing! The treatment is doing what it is supposed to do. Also, instead of every week, it's once every three weeks so I have a break there. And, rather than sitting for 3 or 4 hours being 'infused', it's 45 minutes at the most and then I'm on my way home again. That's also a good thing!
A highlight was that I was able to spend a very pleasant week with my brother Glen on a driving holiday. We drove from home to Penticton, Kelowna, Nelson, the Kootenays, up into Lake Louise, Alberta and then we backtracked to Prince George where we surprised my cousin Esther and her husband Neil for an overnight visit. From there we slowly made our way back home. It was pleasant from beginning to end and I love my brother immensely for taking the time to spend his days with me. Another tick for the bucket list!
