Home again, home again....

Well I am back in Cowtown.  I got to go home for 5 days!!!!!

My anxiety and depression with being here was getting really bad.  For three straight days, I couldn't function.  I kept rolling from one anxiety attack to another.  When I had my doctors appointment, Michael came with me and explained to my doctor how things were not going well.  She decided to sent me home on the condition that i would return for the bone marrow biopsy a week later.

I couldn't get out of here fast enough.  Thankful Michael was willing to pick up and go immediately after my appointment.

It was really nice to be home.  Madeleine was so happy to be back in her room with her friend next door.  My neighbour helped me out on the days I wasn't well which I am hugely grateful for!

Being at home is a balm to my soul.  I feel stronger now.  I'm not happy about having to be in Calgary but I'm not anxious.  I'm also hoping to convince my doctor to send me back home again.  Madeleine is hoping for this too.  She desperately wants everything to go back to normal.

Otherwise my health seems to be improving slowly.  The doctor has decided I may be lactose intolerant from the chemo.  It seems to help to reduce the dairy but hasn't resolved everything.  Blood is still slow but maybe tomorrow we will see something good.
