These are confusing, challenging times. I struggle to find the words for what I want to say in this post.
First, I guess I should say that I’m doing fine. Health is good, as is the rest of the family, who are all home for the duration of the COVID-19 pandemic. Even Paul’s company has a work from home plan right now. We are limiting our outings, which consist mostly of searching for toilet paper. Ironic that Paul’s company makes it, but even their online employee website is out of stock. I’ll probably make an early-morning outing tomorrow to see if I can score some.
The other challenge has been finding alcohol prep wipes to sanitize my skin before making an insulin injection. However, a dear friend sent me some to hopefully get me through until an order I placed online arrives. All local resources are exhausted. I hear a rumor that people are buying them up to sanitize their cell phones.
I have a PET scan scheduled for next week, but I’m beginning to wonder if it will happen, with all the required precautions for spreading the virus. March 19th represents my 6-month anniversary since my last chemo treatment.
My hair is growing in very, very curly. Think 1970’s perm that your mom got at the beauty parlor. I’m looking forward to it growing out further and perhaps stretching out the curl. But, in the grand scheme of things, this is such a minor concern.
I’ve suspended my volunteer work at a local food pantry, which I really struggle to accept. I don’t want to believe that I’m in a high risk category, but with metastases to my lungs, I guess I’m in that group, even thought I have no active cancer. I was truly enjoying my time spent there, and I’m broken-hearted that I’m not there helping out at a time when they face true challenges.
So, in the Moore household, thing are certainly going as best as can be expected. I think of all of you out there who may be facing difficult times, and I pray that you will all rise above those challenges and remain safe and sound.
I’ll be in touch later when I found out if I’ll have my PET scan...and hopefully the good results that it shows.
Great to hear from you Beth .... and hope your treasure hunt is successful! Would love to see a pic of your curls ... my concern is what my head will look like if the hairdressers are not allowed to open in a month's time! Good luck with your appointments. Big hugs to you and your three menfolk!
ReplyDeleteCigarette smoking is the number one risk factor for lung cancer,cigarette smoking is linked to about 80% to 90% of lung cancer deaths. Lung cancer is the most common form of the disease in the world and 90 percent of all cases are caused by cigarette smoking. About 10 to 15 percent of smokers develop lung cancer — although they often die of other smoking-related causes like heart disease, stroke or emphysema. lung cancer often goes unnoticed in its early stages. As the disease develops, a persistent cough develop and chronic cough worsen. including chest pain, shortness of breath, hoarseness, bloody fluid coughed up from the respiratory tract, and frequent bouts of bronchitis or pneumonia. Sometimes all your bones begin pains or hurts you so bad, headaches, dizziness,I was so pissed off and tired of my life,after I developed lung cancer from cigarette smoking and I was at the point of death,through my boredom I was surfing the internet then I came across re Dr James herbal mix. who said he can cure lung cancer with his herbal mix and got herbal cleansers from smoking too.I really thought it was a joke until I have gotta try. when I contacted him,he said yes he can. so little time I thought about it and bought the herbal medicine which I took couple of week to get to me.within one week of taken it I started seeing a lots of changes till I was totally cured. his treatment is so unique,I never thought i will be able to be free from Lung Cancer and smoking treat too.He saved my life and I'm strong and healthy right now.You can speak with Him direct on his mobile/whatsapp +2348152855846

ReplyDeleteI was diagnosed as HEPATITIS B carrier in 2013 with fibrosis of the
ReplyDeleteliver already present. I started on antiviral medications which
reduced the viral load initially. After a couple of years the virus
became resistant. I started on HEPATITIS B Herbal treatment from
ULTIMATE LIFE CLINIC (www.ultimatelifeclinic.com) in March, 2020. Their
treatment totally reversed the virus. I did another blood test after
the 6 months long treatment and tested negative to the virus. Amazing
treatment! This treatment is a breakthrough for all HBV carriers.
