Hope For Holly

We haven’t posted anything in a while. Part of this is due to me having a new job. I’ve been pretty heads down.

Part of it is that I don’t need the reminder. It seems like each time I turn on the radio or the television, someone has been diagnosed with cancer or has died from cancer or is somewhere in between (media should do a better job of highlight survivors, but that is a different rant). I don’t want the reminder. Holly is starting to slowly, very slowly feel better, that it is easy to sometimes forget about our situation.

Part of it is that we are on pins and needles about Holly’s PT scan on 2/12. We, of course, can only have positive vibes, but in the back of our heads, it is hard not to think of the alternative.

At this very second, Holly is walking the dog downtown to get bagels and OJ for breakfast. She is persistent in her exercise routines, hitting the gym a few times a week. She isn’t running yet, but at least getting a few miles in. Yoga and light weights helping too.

She is still tired, though and, periodically, the effects of chemo hit her unexpectedly. The road to recovery is a long one. We believe that we are on the right track. I guess will know after the scan.

Thanks, Eric, for the plug.
