It’s done! Red Devil is done! I arrived about ten minutes early for my 9:30 appointment, and by 10am they’d drawn blood for labs. We discussed the shortness of breath I’d experienced a few times when going upstairs after the third treatment, and Nurse Heidi said it was most likely because my hemoglobin was low. […]
Day 10 – 12 Wigs of Christmas
I’m tired. Really, really tired. Today my copies of Midwest Road Trip Adventures arrived and I spent the afternoon into the evening signing and packing up dozens of them. I’m not complaining.

Day 9 – 12 Wigs of Christmas
