Seriously, you’re doing great! You’ve had so many unexpected things tossed at you these past few months with a new diagnosis, new meds, new doctors, medical challenges you didn’t expect to face and abrupt life style changes! I’d say you’re handling this all quite well. But, increasing the positivity level while decreasing the worry level will help even more. ☺️.
Aw, I’m really sad for you with having to cancel that trip to Amsterdam! It sounds fabulous and I’m so sorry you have to miss it this year! But I still see this trip and others in your future. ☺️
Congrats on the NYT Sunday Puzzle. We no longer get a newspaper at our house and working puzzles online or in a book just don’t have the same feel for me. I love the folded paper in my lap and my favorite pen. But I end up with crossword puzzle books just to keep me in the loop. I am addicted to Wordle online though.

Ok, the 100 days of isolation isn’t really total isolation. You’ll pretty much follow what we did during the height of covid. You will need to be cautious with no hugging, smooching grandkids, avoiding crowds, wear a mask, sanitize your hands and surfaces, avoiding freshly tilled soil and no gardening. There will be some precautions with foods that are raw, especially and deli meats are taboo. There is no 3 second rule for dropping something on the floor, brushing off and eating it! But all of this will be addressed with your pre-transplant classes. It’s really not as challenging as it sounds.

My suggestion is to stay off the internet for some of these things about transplants.

Have you read any of Louise Penny’s Inspector Gamache series?
