@mommacandy I'm relieved to see you back here. I was more than a little worried when I didn't see any updates from you for awhile.

First the chicken. How big is the tractor? I'm trying to envision what happened. And does the chicken ride on the tractor? Or just hang out there? There's always something goin' on in your menagerie of people and animals.

OK, so at least one nurse listened to you. Why don't others take lessons from the first nurse who got the smaller needle that you requested? You've been through this many times in the past as they can clearly see from your chart. And I'm thinking many of the people who work in the infusion center know you, right? And then what a mess about the lab work. Yes, thank goodness a friend will drive you back to UVA tomorrow (?).

Big congratulations on the results of the CT scan. That's all so good. I get very nervous before any imaging and think, oh, no what will show up now? I'm pleasantly surprised when I get back nothing significant and then wonder, AGAIN, why I have to get so catastrophic about it all. I guess it comes with the territory.

Will you go to a salon to get your hair cut? Do you have a regular hair stylist you like to see?

@naturegirl5 i actually go to the local beauty school where they do it because they give discounts on colorings or usually free on all other things including cuts, waxing etc to cancer patients its always done by students but supervised by instructors..I got it all done on Thurs...went and got blood friday and feeling a little better... if hair continues to fll out i'll just cut it all off and go wigs again for awhile...but you can see from the pics they did a decent job 🙂

the chicken tractor is like a mobile coop...it can move around the yard with a fenced in area to keep away from critters like our cats and dog lol.. its about 12 feet long total and 3 feet wide and very heavy so has wheels on the back to make it easier to move...we'll put wheels on front when we find more similar ones...

and thats they latest... at least atm.. now i'm feeling a little better i'm trying to do more...although i was told i need to try to eat some red meat every day.. yea right...like anybody can afford that these days lol...
