I mean, let's say you did kill us. Or didn't. There could be torture. Whatever. But somehow you found the goods. What would your cut be?

Glad to hear it went well, Pix, and wishing you good ongoing recovery and pain control ~ma.

I hope the recovery goes well and quickly, Pix.

Hope recovery is as easy as it can be, Pix, and your knee is only evil towards those who deserve it.

I just realized I forgot I meant to do a home test after work. Doing it now. Glad I got a few tests to have lying around in case I needed them!

Oh, I hope your knee comes along very well and has a redemption arc where it is a Knee For Good.

My shoulder is all stitched up and it feels weird because it is exactly as if somebody has been sewing my skin together, which, in fact, happened.

That said it was a relatively normal day and those have been in short supply. I'm really glad we didn't rush back down to LA again this weekend. It would've been wrecking.

I'm optimistic about JZ's clinical trial (and I wasn't about her next round of traditional chemo). But, lordy, the travel's going to be tough.

Good Trouble and Righteous Fights

Knee~ma, Pix!

We've been having some much-needed landscaping done around our house, including finally getting the fire pit Dylan has been talking about since we bought the house almost 13 years ago now. The past two days the landscapers re-sodded the yard, with the result that it is now so level and perfect and green it looks the Mariners' outfield on Opening Day. I swear the local robins and crows are baffled by it--I've spotted them pacing carefully across the new grass as if mapping the sudden change of it all.

Ah, welcome Spring with the smell of new grass. Enjoy. I used my firepit a bunch last summer and it was so relaxing.

That said it was a relatively normal day and those have been in short supply.

Yes, you may have to try and schedule normal days for recovery between the travel and treatment days. I'm sure you are both exhausted.

Starting to bounce back. I'm glad we didn't go down this weekend though I'm eager to get JZ into this trial.

Also, it's been a few weeks since she's had an infusion so she's got more energy and I'm able to get some weight back onto her before we start up again.

I have to make new travel plans today for next week.

Are the pain meds. adequate?

What does the travel routine look like? Fly down Thursday evenings, back Sunday afternoons?
