APRIL 5-2012 ALONG MY JOURNEY

Shalom!

It's been quite a while since I last wrote. I always meant to, but by the time I did what I HAD to do, I was depleted and just went to bed. The fatigue hits whenever and is still prominent. After all the mammograms and ultrasounds again, thank G. right now, that part is clear. The attack on my immune system remains-leaving me with extreme fatigue, chronic urticars-i.e., hives, swelling in lips, eyes. Thus I get only so much done, and that is that. I just can't do more.
Of course, aging is a factor, but not to that extent. So after on/off pills to deal with all this allergy, I am back on again for at least 2 months. But altho' it is a pain, I remind myself to be thankful that it's not cancer, its' the result of the chemotherapy which did a real number on my immune system.

I finished taking the course to help other sick people, and now after Passover/Pesach, we will hear how our help will be implemented and where. In this course, and sometimes out in the 'world, there are some very caring people who want to reach out to others. It makes me believe in some of mankind.

Each set-back or pain or miscomfort reminds me to be sensitive to the pain of others.
I wish any reader a wonderful spring-let's try to enjoy nature and its beauty. I reach out to you, wherever you are, to say-thank G. we're alive right now, today, and G. willing, tomorrow and beyond.

Love and hugs
