Big warning here about a storm and we had 5 -7 cms ... what will the authorities cry if we get one of those 80+ cm storms?

Mores to come ... and few know of what they speak!

Our little and very-imperfect church choir sang at mom’s nursing home yesterday. We sang a few anthems and invited people to join in on familiar songs and hymns. It was beautiful! At one point I stopped singing to listen to ‘Somewhere over the rainbow’. A moment to store in my heart…

Not Cross Buns sounds yummy. Chilly here but nothing like that. -11 on my way in this morning, not sure about wind chill. That's from my car's thermometer. Supposed to snow again on the weekend and I'm still achy from yesterday's shoveling. Groan.
 
Today is Valentine's Day and the sixth anniversary of my diagnosis. I'm sure you would understand why I'm not into the celebrations going on today. I also get my second IV treatment. I can't say I'm looking forward to it. The first one kicked my butt. I'm only feeling close to normal today.

Previous drugs have kicked my butt at first. Then the doctor decreased the dose and all was good. Here's hoping that happens with this one.

Happy Valentine's to those who do celebrate.
 
Happy Valentine's Day to those who celebrate it. I'm looking forward to receiving a nice present from Yobo
 
Understandable range of feelings you have today Northwind. Hoping this drug protocol becomes more bearable.

We have never made a fuss around this date.

Mr. C is sleeping in the recliner in the sun shining through the south window. He has an upset tummy of some sort. I'm hoping it isn' catching.
 
The cancer clinic called. My treatment has been postponed until next week. My neutrophils (part of the white cells) are in the toilet. They are supposed to be above 1 to get treatment. Mine were at .59. No wonder I feel like a used dish rag. I'm not heartbroken that it has been postponed.
 
Glad (in a sense) to hear your care team is attentive to the values. Is neupogen injection still used to enhance this? I recall a friend being on that a few years ago. Fingers crossed for recovery soon, by whatever means. And geez - you originally got your dx on VD? That sucks. No missing that anniversary even if you tried. Sending gentle hugs.

I'm in a group for this drug. Some people there do get an injection. Usually there will be a dose reduction which may help. Apparently another option may be getting the treatment every other week. Such is the treatment.....there's juggling involved. My team is excellent and I suspect the first action will be a dose reduction.
 
It was so nice to have a day without the treatment. We enjoyed a fire with friends. The fresh air was wonderful. I'm feeling better. I made an appointment to get a haircut next week. We'll do some work to get our summer plans sorted out next week. Hopefully we're not too late. One of the hazards of our lifestyle.....

It's actually something I'm rather good at it. I never balk or hesitate, so I almost always make it, as long as I've calculated snow depth and appropriate angle (towards the lowest point). I have a tiny AWD 5-speed, so I do better than most.

So, during work, I texted big guy to say "unless boarder has shovelled, I have to stop at my house and blow out bottom before we get more". I round the corner after work and see my guy's truck in front of house, and snowblower plume. Happy Valentine's Day to me. I am so blessed.
