Oncology


She is sad.
Her tummy hurts.
She is not hungry.
This morning we go to the doctor for a follow-up to the CTscan last week.
A needle, some blood, weight, height, some questions.
Pretty routine, I guess.
But when she's eight years old,
when she's yours,
nothing like this feels routine.

Ooooh! Bless her heart! (and I don't mean that in the condescending Southern way.... I really mean it)

I'm praying for her this afternoon. Let us know how she does, OK?

Oh, my.
K.,
Arms out (to you and her), eyes looking up.

Considering this post, please put Eleanor Rigby aside and dive into a Geez magazine. Thinking of you.

Thank you everyone!

CT scan is negative - phew again:-)

No more needles or doctors for 6 months! Feels like we've passed a milestone.

Thanks for bein' with me.
