Day 77
The best laid plans are still eggs that can crack, and so it is with next week. Debbie and I had planned to tag team, so that I could be in Atlanta in the office for a few days again. John's 80 day tests, however, have been moved up, will start Wednesday and will include another bone marrow biopsy on Friday, which I have to be here for. Of course, that is all positive in terms of John's progress. Debbie also has need to be in Atlanta because of sick dogs and a bit of good old exhaustion as well.
Air conditioning hasn't been invented in Seattle yet and so the occasional days when it reaches the 80s can cause you to seek out some shade and a breeze. It's not bad, especially compared to the monsoons in Atlanta, which have formed an indoor pool in my basement, but we have to be sure John doesn't overheat from it. Although he is bored with the semi-isolation, the lack of good company and my cooking, John is quite aware of how fortunate he is to be recovering so well, so far. It was just about now a year ago that he started showing symptoms that led to his diagnosis.
