I started this blog to keep folk up to date on my husband's melanoma treatments. I have kept up daily blogs for 15 1/2 years…sometimes health related...sometimes just daily routine. June 16th Woody took his final breath in his long health battle. I have blogged for so long that it is part of my daily routine…so I guess I will continue with posts from me about how I cope with this new stage in my life…widowhood.

Wait, wait, wait, and wait again!
it has been a long day of waiting...an especially long time of waiting for labs. I think that there was such a logjam because of last week's snow and ice. Lots of people here. We got quite far behind in appointment times. We were called in almost immediately to Dr. Sosman...less than 5 minutes after Woody was finished FINALLY with labs. Problem there was that lab report wasn't back yet...we did find out that his lungs are in excellent shape...so cough isn't due to his lungs. Cough can't be explained except that perhaps a side effect of Keytruda...as perhaps his getting so tired when he does anything using upper body strength. Anyway, he sent us upstairs for the infusion...to wait...till labs got back so they could order infusion med from pharmacy. His appointment for his infusion was 2:30...infusion was just started a few minutes before 5:00. We will be cutting it close to get our car before the valet parking folk close-up shop. There is a phone number to call if they are closed for the night. It has been a long day. We left the house at 9:40 and it was smooth sailing all the way here...no traffic problems. But getting here early today didn't help a bit.
Now for the reason that I'm blogging early from Vanderbilt. We will be without Internet for a while...probably at least a week if not longer. So the blogs will be far and few between, if at all, till we are once again connected with cyberspace! We will see if I have withdrawal symptoms. I plan to sew, read, and perhaps cook and maybe clean! I'll "see" you when we are connected once again.
