NOV. 1, 2010

Shalom once again to my blog and readers:

Now to catch myself up on what is going on. It is slowly sinking in to me that this constant heavy fatigue is going to be part of me for even up to a year. My oncologist gave me an article for doctors that really showed me that with all of my medical background, this is what is, and not a sign of further cancer necessarily.Therefore, live w. it, and accept the need to lie down all the time between activities.

Secondly, the pain of shoulder and arm seems to be from the biopsy when they cut into the lymph nodes to check for the spread of cancer. Physio therapy has done me no good thus far. I am going next week to another specialist elsewhere to see what he can do. But one learns to live with the pain and discomfort.

Other than all of the above, I am mindful of each good moment and happening in life. It hurts me terribly to see other women ill with cancer or dying of it right now. I pray for all of us-statistics show that 4,000 women get hit with cancer in Israel every year-we must do our part to eat healthy, to exercise, to keep our bodies and our minds active and near positive, friendly people.
To any readers who know me personally, I thank you for your encouragement and patience and friendship.

It is November, time marches on, and I thank the universe for granting me more time here on earth. May I use it well.
