Good news on how your appointment went, but sad that you may lose your oncologist. I know from my family's experiences that if you build rapport with your oncologist and know how to work with them it is so difficult to contemplate working with someone else. Tough decision.

OH is driving me crazy!!!! So very slow!

Finding it hard to eat today. Morning smoothie took a few hours to consume and I took just a few bites of lunch (1 cup cottage cheese with 1/2 cup of pineapple) and can't eat anymore. Will try taking bites throughout the day to fini**** Hope dinner goes better! The meds are definitely working! Down another 1/2 pound today.

Goal is to get my protein in and try to drink more fluid!

Couples Bible study tonight and woman's Bible study tomorrow morning. I was supposed to work in our church's garden this morning (we donate the food raised to a local food pantry) but I really just needed some me time. I'be been attending to DC so much lately that I have not focused on what I need. Trying to do that today!

CC, that rainbow was beautiful! Safe travels to MI!

Peps, interesting info on the dogs. How hard is it to let them go once you've gotten attached to them living in your home? I imagine it is hard!

DD, glad your MD check up went well. We will be changing all of our medical care once in FL, but have had to make some changes the last several years due to insurance changes and practitioners leaving so don't feel too bad about leaving a loved health care provider with the exception of my gynecologist! My bariatric surgeon closed his practice the year after my surgery so I just follow with my PCP for those labs.

I'm missing that not wanting to eat this week! Good thing my injection is tomorrow and I am going up in dose.

You have to take care of yourself to be able to give to others. Otherwise you will burn out.
