Kate and I spent the first week in the apartment and the freedom has been wonderful. I spend each morning in the clinic getting blood drawn and any replenishment (such a magnesium, potassium or red blood) Today I am getting red blood transfusion. Yesterday I was unusually tired and the boost in red blood will help. My brother in law Richard and wife Ann came up from the cape earlier this week and we had a great visit. Somehow the topic came up about the sorry state of the umbrellas in my house (all spokes no protection) after they left the bell rings and here are rich and Ann with a shiny new umbrella! Sadly looks like it will come in handy this week.
My Mom is staying with me now. We had a great day taking Joseph shopping at Copley place for some last minute additions to his Spain wardrobe. He left yesterday and will be gone two weeks on an exchange program. Been a bit wiped out ever since so hopefully I'll get a nice boost today.
The docs remain very encouraged with my progress and if it continues I may go home at the end of the week! Will keep you posted. So glad my mom is here. Jim and Emma arrive shortly. A great day
Thanks for checking in

Too bad that you will need use of the umbrella. Hope to see that you are home by next week.

Maureen, I am so happy and relieved you are able to leave the apartment from time to time. I am so looking forward to the time when Karen, Kathy and I can use our plane tickets from February to visit...no more snow, right?? Rain is okay!. Maybe in June? KBi is in London right now. When she is back we can decide a good time...whatever is best for you! Love you, sweetie, and am keeping you close in heart and spirit. xo
