TGFM (thank God for Mucinex)

After digging deep in my medicine chest, I finally found some Mucinex, which helped a lot to bring some comfort late last evening. and helped me to get going this morning. It was a slow start, but I did manage to get into work for a 1/2 day, and get my yearbooks out. It was good to see everyone. Surprisingly, everyone liked my short hair. One of my friends daughters had BC last year, and she had Dr. Sunkin for a chemo oncologist, and spoke highly of him. One of the girls who is closest to our new president assured me that if I needed to work from home a little bit longer to be sure to ask. It was nice to hear that. I have NO idea how I'll do with chemo, so this could be the hard part for me. Another friend told me about a Suzanne Sommers book, Knockout, about curing cancer with alternative therapies. I'm going to call the library tonight to see if they have it in. She's pretty cutting edge when it comes to healthcare - even more extreme than I, but it will be interesting to hear what she has to say. I know there are holistic oncologists out there, but there aren't any in my area, and again, they're usually not covered by insurance. I'll keep opening every door I can until I get right down to sitting in that chemo chair!!!

I was pretty tired by the time I was ready to leave work, but I even had enough steam to hit the market on the way home. I'm ready for this cold to go away - it's draining me!

My friend Sandy (owner of the gallery I'm in) is going to Boston with me on Thursday. We're planning on checking out the galleries on Newbury St. after my appointment. This will be great, as I won't have to drive both ways in one day, or pay for a room. We'll have a great time, and have a chance to discuss marketing strategies for the gallery for the holidays.
