Hello again! Since I got off that dreadful pill I am doing great. I have been to Boston twice this month. Once on July 6th and my latest infusion which was yesterday. Steve has gone with me these last few times and we have taken the bus. We have finally figured out which "T" to take and how to get to Mass. General. It is was such a long day for both of us. On our way back to the "T" we met a nice elderly couple who were from Concord. Bet you wonder how we met them!! Steve asked them if the "T" that were about to get on was the right one to South Station. They said that they also take the bus to Boston for their doctor's appointments. The women was carrying a pillow and explained that she had back problems. We lost sight of them as they got on the "T". We had just ten minutes to catch the next bus to Concord. We were doing fine but then seemed somewhat lost. I look in front of me and there was the lady with her pillow tucked underneath her arm. With a big smile and confidence I said to Steve "Follow me. I've got this."
I will go to Waltham, Mass. for my cat scan on July 31st. Oh how I dread that day. I hate drinking the two bottles of contrast and I know that I will not choose the flavor banana! UGH... Will have Steve drive me to this appointment as it is located just outside of Boston.
Still having a hard time adjusting to no more driving or riding a bike. Thinking of buying a scooter with front brakes.
Will see Dr Sullivan to have my scan read on August 1st. If this clinical trail is not working he plans to stop it. He says that he has something else up his sleeve.
Trying to remain positive but can be difficult at times. So glad that I have my grand dog Bentley.
