Today we went for a nice walk all the way up Corsi Hill. It was a quick pace at first and then we slowed down going up the hill. The walk was much easier without Olivier stopping every five steps because he sees a rock that he likes. It is surprising how many special rocks…
Today I received a phone call informing me that my chemo treatment is on Thursday now instead of Wednesday. I need to get my injection on Saturday now and I am not sure if the nurses that come to the house work on the weekend. It may mean that Melanie needs to inject me. I…
