Here we go ..I got my call this morning from the Oncology department at the Georges Dumont and I get marked on Thursday, then I go back in about a week for the commencement of 25 days of Radiation. After this I will meet with my Oncologists have the required blood work and tests to see that I am free of the nasty business called cancer.
But Iam excited to begin the final phase of this journey. Sure its going to be tiring, and watching the area of my body shrivel up a bit .ahem not nice. But I'll make new friends over there I always make the nurses laugh..don't know why I just do. Maybe because I say exactly whats going through my mind. No editing for me. ..Sue Live.
I've spent the last three weeks resting up, sleeping in going off of medications, trying to get my mojo back in the kitchen. I found a cookbook at Frenchy's, its really great its full of gourmet recipes you can cook in 30 minutes. I've decided to try most of them. Last night we had chicken breasts stuffed with seafood, sweet potatoes whipped on the side with a delicious Caesar Salad. Tonight its Hungarian Beef with Paprika. Frank had a bad tooth pulled yesterday and his poor mouth was frozen but what he could taste he said was good. He is so sweet after every meal he goes " mm mmnn mmmmmmmmmmm. Honest to God how could you not cook for someone who says my secret ingredient is Love??
I also is going to start exercising I had to take a week off from the treadmill from overdoing it in my Friends torture chamber aka home gym in Atlanta. I would like to look totally svelte when I go 25 days in a row to the Dumont. I will dress to the nines, a different a wig for each outfit and will not repeat an outfit, unless requested by a nurse or very handsome Doctor. Oh to live in my head. Its fun on my Street. Just don't leave me alone for too long.
Have a nice day. Oh and I will leave you with this little bit of news. Yesterday I celebrated 2 years without a drop of Alcohol...Oh yes I miss the drinking and dialing. Be very happy I never had your number.

congrats on the 2 years! big accomplishment!
ReplyDeleteglad that you can see the light at the end of the tunnel. it has certainly been a long and difficult road for you. The tummy tuck and new boobs are a tiny ( not too tiny frank says !)compensation for all your hardships. there has to be a silver lining...you just may not always see it right away.
