How low can you go

  • Bloodwork and treatment at Siteman West County
My blood pressure was just as low today as it was before I started all of this mess. (It had always been on the low side, but then it's been all over the place in the last year.) Anyway, that's a good thing. I suppose that I have been feeling pretty "at peace" lately, not overwhelmingly stressed. Maybe it was our weekend trip to Branson. Everything there was definitely moving at a sloooooow pace.

There was a woman in my pod today just starting her first treatment of FOLFOX. I felt like I should have shared a bunch of words of wisdom with her, other than, "hello, good morning." The more I thought about it while I was sitting there, the more her body language was telling me that she wasn't in the mood to talk today anyway. Hopefully our paths will cross again on another Tuesday though and I can be a source of... something.
