Last Friday we had a special event at church that I volunteer for. A Night to Remember is prom for those with special needs. It’s always a fun night. I helped with flowers. I love to see the pure joy on those students’ faces. I’ve come to realize that during my recovery, anything “extra” requires a bit more rest for my body. So later today a much needed nap will be enjoyed.
Right Now:
Student ministry this morning. Nap this afternoon. That post-church nap always hits just right.
This Week:
On my mind this week is my MRI and CT scan. My feeling is that the pulmonary embolism is not fully resolved. I still get very winded sometimes. As for the MRI, I pray that the two tumors that were discovered later are just no more (poof, gone) or that they haven’t grown at all.
My three days in the office have been going okay. I am admittedly wiped out after day 3 but I’m getting through it. My hair though… almost totally gone. I did buy a wig but I haven’t tried it yet. It just feels like a lot of hair! Not sure my scalp will tolerate it.
Reading:
I am reading Census by Jesse Ball. I chose it for book club. It’s very different. I like it so far. It’s slightly dystopian/sci-fi. Catches me off guard sometimes. It makes you think.
Grateful for:
McDonald’s sweet tea. Ever since my brain surgery I’ve not been able to drink coffee or even have it around me. The smell!!! I used to love coffee so much but on my office days I’ve been enjoying sweet tea instead.
Book Chatter 
your positivity and your desire to give unto others even tho you are going thru so much is so amazing and wonderful
Happy Mothers Day and enjoy the nap
💐Happy Mother’s Day💐
Hope your test results are good.
Enjoy your much deserved nap!
You’re doing great! Continued good thoughts for your recovery.
I really hope your MRI and CT scan bear good results that show things are going in the right direction. My good friend who is going through chemo has lost most of her hair and her wig looks great. She wears it at work then switches to scarves and beanies as soon as she is away from work; she says that’s working well for her.
Thinking about you!
I have the wig now but haven’t worked up the courage to wear it yet. I wanted to have it in the event that every last hair just suddenly fell out. Right now I have a pathetic, really pathetic comb over thing going on. I need to just bite the bullet and put the darn thing on. I do see growth but man, it will be a year before it’s anything significant.
I totally get postponing wearing it. I hope once you try it, that it works for you.
Happy Mother’s Day, Ti. I hope you’re having a lovely day. Keeping you in my thoughts as your upcoming tests draw closer. Hang in there!
Happy Mother’s Day, Ti! Good luck with the CT /MRI this week… I’ll be thinking of you.
I am hoping for some good news for you! 🙂 Sweet tea always brings a smile to my face for some reason.
I’ll be thinking of you this week and your CT / MRI scans coming up. I hope they are clear. Stay strong. You’re doing great to be at work.
