I Like the Color Red but........

Today was a workday, though I don't think I made any progress with sales. Maybe tomorrow some more things will fall together. My friend Pam stopped by for lunch, and we had a nice chat. Her husband Charlie, my pastor and dear friend passed away almost 2 years ago from bile duct cancer, and got his treatment at Mass General, which certainly influenced my decision to go there. We talked again today about how different their experience was with chemo there. They had the same nurse every time, and she became like a family member. They still remain in touch. 

So my girl seemed to be less red this morning, but tonight, it seems to till be the same. So confused about this. I can't imagine how it could be an infection, yet I have no other explanation why it would be red. Two days on the keflex, so we'll see if tomorrow brings any more change. I never even called the doctor today, he wanted me to go to Boston tomorrow, but with the storm, I'm not going to do that. I also have an appt. tomorrow with Wayne, and another one Wed. w/ the other chemo doc. So I'll call tomorrow and set an appt. for Thurs. I'm really hoping it will be gone by then, and I won't have to go. Ugh.

Had a nice conversation with Joe (qigong) on fb. And he asked me if I was doing my qigong exercises. I had to admit that I wasn't doing them as much as I should. I've spent so much time trying to figure out if I should do chemo that I'm not doing the things I think will be most helpful. What's wrong with that picture? Time to be more disciplined. If I do end up doing alternative instead of chemo, I'll have to be careful not to become complacent.

till tomorrow......
