Life has continued and So will we...

When the automatic doors on the SCCA floor closed on us in January the rest of the world fell away.  We peaked out on occasion but then would return and continue the internal battle of Cancer and Bone Marrow Transplant.

All my energy was taken by the day in and day out work of Caregiver.  I was not alone by any means but at no time did I ever not think about it.  It was a relief to be out of the hospital but I was so focused on the journey I could not not think about it.

It was a better stay because I knew we were there for a long long time.  None of the:  Do we go home today? Do we have to stay longer?  When will the counts return.  When will we have a chance to go out on pass.
We were settled in.  We did have the strength to be helpful to the newly diagnosed.  The recently relapsed, the long term transplant people.  I had the energy to continue my quest for better healthy and safe food. 

Because of our small tightly enclosed world I did miss a few things.  Did you know that gas went to $4.15 a gallon? Did you know that there are only 3 crazy republican candidates left?  Did you know that if you take birth control pill Rush Limbach wants to watch Porno?

I have decided to continue to ignore all the serious stuff.  I am sorting seeds, enjoying my daffodils and watching the birds.  I am walking the dog, looking forward to the return of Lily.

We are so so lucky.
