Hansel & Gretel Eat Your Heart Out




Good Evening,

I hope you all enjoy our work of art. Kathleen brought me an art project for the evening. We were covered in icing and we had a panic moment when we thought we had stained the bed side table red and green. oops.

I am more tired but I have had another relatively calm day. It is so strange. So different from last time. Most of my meds are things to prevent any and all potential infections. I had to practically beg for this last time. A whole new experience. I know things will get much harder but I am so very thankful for this.

I had a wonderful visit from my Aunt Karen this afternoon. She brought her famous homemade apple pie. I hope people feel like they can come to visit without bringing food...but it does help. :) I love all the visits.

It sounded like a very cold day today. It was sunny and warm in my little room. Mom and I worked on a baby quilt which I can't show you until it is presented to the new baby. I hope she likes it. Kathleen is spending the night tonight. It should be a better night. I am drinking gallons of fluids so I get to stay off the IV fluids and I have a night off from chemo. Kathleen is all over the place with the TV watching. Her line up this evening was 1. History of McCarthyism and Hollywood 2. The Real Housewives of Atlanta(never again) 3. The Closer 4. Prop 8 arguments in the ninth circuit us court of appeals on c-span. 5. America's cutest cat. I haven't laughed so hard in awhile. Julie and Ross this is totally for you. My nurse must think we are really odd.

Well on that note...Goodnight. Thank you for all the wonderful thoughts and prayers. I really helps to read them everyday.

Great to see you smiling. You are a very strong woman and have alot of strength being sent your way. Know that you are loved by all. Want to see you soon and give you a "big hug". Would like some information on bone marrow transplant and I would like to be tested as a donor. Love to all.
Aunt Mary Anne
