In Stitches

Less than one minute read time.

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...

    Cella, I admire you for your knitting skills, its fast becoming a lost art.  My Mum and MIL knit but I am terrible!

    What a lovely gift for your nurse I am sure he will appreciate it.
