Well, I guess I needed a break from all the poking, prodding and testing done Tuesday through Thursday last week. It felt good being back at work, yet eerily odd at the same time. The reality of my situation looms as a much closer reality soon to be had. It is unnerving & daunting at the same time. Yet, I try to remain positive & not too fearful of what lies ahead. Though working everyday is quite tiring & leaves one little time to enjoy any lifestyle, one must appreciate the little things that help make it easier doing so (see pics of my work backdrops). So, I am now back at Moffitt having just concluded my psych eval tests. Dr Booth-Jones says I'm normal. That all my cognitive & memory skills are exceptional!! She don't know me very well, does she?? Lol ? Just kidding. She concedes though, that they're not acustom to working with patients such as myself. Typically, their BMT patients are more diminished mentally & physically due to underlying & preexisting conditions making them so. She also understands & can concur with my thought process as to coming out of this hopefully more energetic than I am even now. I do count my blessings, make no mistake. My age, early diagnosis by my PCP & hematologist, being of relatively good health & mental acuity. All these things I have to be very grateful for and having a scenic view from both my jobs. Faithfully yours.
