Well, I’m here at City of Hope. On Tuesday at 7 am the final round of chemotherapy begins.
I’m staying in a little studio apartment in Parsons Village, which is on the grounds of the City of Hope campus. The picture on the right provides a glimpse of it. Also, as you can see, it provides a glimpse of the new me. As of yesterday I still had quite a bit of hair left, but it was falling out and I was shedding around the house like a Persian cat from hell. So I figured it was time to just shave it off. It’s all coming out eventually anyway.
So what do I remind you of? Kiefer Sutherland in Stand By Me? One of the drones from Apple’s 1984 commercial? Y’all can decide in comments.
I visited my sister and my mother yesterday, and I’m happy to report that Hilbert and Hopper are in fine fettle. I set up my sister with Skype on her iPad, so now she can call at night and show me the little furballs in real time. Technology FTW.
And don’t forget our Spring fundraiser! I’m still hoping you guys contribute generously to the cause. Remember what they say: Every dollar you give helps one of my hairs grow back.
