Still Here!

Yes, I am still here. Everything has been going very well, health-wise. I fought a cold this week, and won!

The swelling in my right leg is now almost completely gone, and I walk with a 90% normal gait. The remaining swelling is slight and is confined to the right ankle and foot. When I walk, I have a very mild stinging sensation, not unlike the sensation you can associate with your foot when it "goes to sleep".

I took a two-mile walk at lunch time today, and enjoyed every step. A year ago, my constant back pain would have made that walk impossible.

My next doctor's appointment is on Feb 25th, and I won't have chemotherapy until the end of March.

Stay tuned. I promise to post more often in the next two weeks, God willing and the creek don't rise....
