Well, I think I have had the last chemo for now. I have an appointment in early December to determine which helping poison I should take next without burning out my platelet production. The trick is not to allow the cancer to get a foot hold inside me without my usual chemo. We shall see. In the meantime, I am knitting away a hat for my visiting nurse extraordinaire...a HE...and as compassionate a soul as you'll ever meet. If his personality at his home is anywhere near the person I see three times a week, his girlfriend is very lucky!! She is a nurse also...what a dynamic duo. It is a chocolate brown, the hat...a color I see him in frequently. So, maybe a scarf with it. It is very soft which tends to have a person reach for it more often. I do crafts as they are therapeutic and I can meditate while doing them. My mind goes to plain, soft places and the day passes easily. I am going to attempt a top down raglan sweater...lol...I hear all of you veteran knitters laughing at me...lol...well, I'm gonna try...lol. And the chemo socks go on...
