Well, my desens nurse had a cold while I was getting chemo and being desensed. She wore a mask intermittantly, coughed and sneezed away from everyone and into her sleeve; told me how handwashing is very important in the spread of colds, etc. And guess what? Can you guess? Yep...I have a cold...five days out of chemo and nearing my nadir...hope my poor old body can shake it before the coming of nadir! And this I can assure you...No one who has a cold will ever take care of me again. And don't you. I was soft, easy and allowed her to care for me when she shouldn't have. What dopes...both of us.
