Good evening dearest friends and wonderful family! Daniel is out and we gave him the night off from blogging, so you're stuck with me..."the horse's mouth".
This morning was my second bone marrow biopsy, this one done at Moffitt, and the pathologist, who was present during the procedure, showed me and told me it was a very good specimen. I agreed, it was lovely. ;~) Perhaps the Atavan I took had something to do with it? The procedure took about 15-20 minutes and they got me up and out as soon as I opened one eye only half way! From there Jaime wheeled me around, visiting the cafeteria for breakfast and out into the rainy day. He is an excellent driver!
Looking forward to this weekend of no plans to be near any hospital. I really was hoping to row, but it looks like the wind gods are not in our favor and there will be small craft advisories instead. ;~(
Monday I will have my blood work done in SRQ at Dr. Chu's office and Thursday back to Tampa for my results. In the meantime, I will be juicing, smoothie(ing) and eating my way to good healthy blood, and lots of great energy best I can with all the wonderful recomendations from my wonderful Dr. Leiber. Julie's most wonderful chicken veggie soup has given me the strength to write this lengthly blog...so you can blame her!
Immediatley following my appointment on Thursday at Moffitt, we will be swinging by the TPA airport to fetch my sister, Susan and nephew, Jason (he really gets around). That's the most exciting news for now! I can't wait!! I'm planning on Thursday being a wonderful day!! Thank you all for your continued support, love and every text, e-mail, card and phone call. I am so grateful for you all! Love, Carol

Carol, I'm Michael's friend from DC and we met last weekend at the boat yard. I'm pulling for you and wish you the best!
ReplyDeleteDear family & friends, lurkers & bloggers alike-
ReplyDeleteNeedless to say, Carol's latest blog underscores her amazing ability to stay laser-focused on what she can do to positively influence her health, and also the depth of devotion of Jaime & Daniel to support that as well. They're both learning to navigate the aisles of Whole Foods and the farmers' market, and operating the juicer is now a family affair :-) So just a little "thank you" along this journey to Carol, Jaime & Daniel for being an inspiration for all of us! With all my love, sister/Aunt Susan
Carol,
ReplyDeleteWe think about you every day! George says he's holding you to the double row!
Love,
Deb & George
