New Directions

November has left me dazed and confused.

It started just like any other month, but after the first week it was as if someone had stuck me in a barrel and rolled in down the mountainside.

A trip to the doctor for what I thought was a minor problem turned out to be anything but. It led to CT scans, PET scans biopsies and an eventual diagnosis of Diffuse large B-cell lymphoma (non-Hodgkin's).

Once I realized we were dealing with cancer I was terrified it was lung cancer so the eventual findings were a great relief. What I do have is treatable.

Just to add to the drama of the month I ended it by falling face first onto a side walk. I didn't break my nose but I do now have two black eyes as well as a smashed nose. The rest of me is pretty bunged up too.

Be interesting to see what December brings.

Ahh, I'll be posting some stuff on AC about this new adventure of mine.

I've been following your posts on FB but can't respond there because you haven't confirmed my friend request (Iunderstand you have lots more on your mind right now!). (Not sure why I can see them, but that's a FB issue).

Obviously, I don't come here often enough, or I'd have responded here sooner.

You have been in my thoughts and prayers. I'm glad you're getting good results and hope this continues.
