She can't stand on her own as they haven't been doing any physio with her to keep up her mobility since she went into the hospital 12 weeks ago :( Very disheartening as she was walking when she was home.

Absolutely. Rehab requires some commitment that you don't get institutionally. My own Mom completely screwed her own recovery when she decided she didn't "like" the OT.
 
It is interesting, to some, to contemplate how we will face our own death and disability. I've done a lot of it. I suspect other people find my thought processes morbid.

one person's morbid, another person's mental/emotional preparation. Being somewhat incapacitated, has made me realize that there are lots of difference ways a person can mentally/emotionally process and continue with life...I tend to do all I can to try to get better/do more even if my physically reality doesn't always seem to reflect that and I, too, have my discouraging days...mom has always been one to give up unless there is someone to "tough love" her into fighting to improve.

Lucy is super aware of 'normal' dog relationships. First time she met Fergus, a male rough collie across the road, she put her paw on his back, he flipped her over, and that was it, they were friends. They knew their 'proper' relationship - size. breed. gender. To this day, and he is now completely blind, he totally trusts Lucy's smell judgment of a situation.

Extensive dog Maw ...
 
I had a good sleep last night. That's always a good thing on treatment night. I'm not sure it helped a lot though. I don't think I feel well rested. There are grey skies out there so I may have another good reason to stay inside and chill.

Tipping a mug of warm relaxing beverage towards @BethAnne in a toast.

Thanks and take it easy today.
 
I picked up the custom planters, corn, melons (3 different kinds), strawberries and tomato pot yesterday and planted what needed planted - I think the garden/flowerbeds are all done!...now if the weeds would just magically disappear! We got 1/8th inch rain LAST night and this morning I suddenly have weeds everywhere!
 
I picked up tomato and basil and pepper plants today, but it's rained all day, so they're sitting on the back deck with the planter fixings, looking wet and chilly.
 
Not many stopped at the sales today but 50% of those who did bought something so I have space to add more items :)
 
Waiting for casserole for tomorrow's potluck to be cooked, so that I can store appropriately. Lazy perogie casserole with smoked cheddar in the potato layer for a variation.
 
What a glorious day here. We've been very lazy. We just went out for a bit of shopping including Costco. My feet are now up.

1 more round (3 weekly treatments) of this drug. I see the oncologist after that then start the next drug. I must remember that the side effects (fatigue, sore fingers) are signs the treatment is doing something.....
 
Today I've been bawling lots :( trying not to stress about everything but it's hard when everything is right in front of my face as it were.
