I am tired, satisfied and ready to rest well. I feel hugely grateful to Ed. I look forward to feeling better tomorrow, for I think it likely now. Phew...

Lucky, lucky me
My funk was halted with caring, love, sunshine, and nature carried forth via a leisurely drive in areas I had never been. On yet another day that I was not feeling at all well, I am very grateful that Ed knew what to do...he came and picked me up and took me to a forest called Frozen Ocean. It was high up on a hill top and it was very quiet and pretty and tranquil up there. In the evening, for the first time in a long, long while, I had organic bacon, naturally apple-wood smoked...delicious and what I craved after days of very little to eat and chemo residual health matters.

Dear Chris, I feel for you in this struggle. I am so glad Ed was able to join with you for an inspirational outing. A reminder that I will be arriving at the train station in Syracuse on Sunday evening, 4/7 at 6:48pm. If you don't feel up to picking me up at the station I can take a taxi. I am researching the directions for driving from your house to the Oncology Campus -- not that you won't be there to tell me but it's good if I have an idea in advance, the better to negotiate those tricky left turns in unfamiliar territory. I have been reading your blogs regularly and keep you in my prayers, lighting candles and burning incense in my garden temple. Leaving town on Wednesday, 3/27, maybe will try and call you before I come to Syracuse. God Bless.
