Just checking in to see how your appointment went today…or is still upcoming perhaps. The transfusion will help recharge your system again. Not nearly as fun as a Lemon Drop martini… I can’t drink those anymore either. Boy, our lives sure change abruptly when we least expect it. 🙃

I’m sorry to hear you have zero appetite. Makes it very difficult to feel like eating anything. It’s great that you’re still able to join your cohorts at breakfast and lunch. It really does seem to help when you’re sitting with a dinner companion to be able to eat, even if you’re not very hungry. Talking and eating seem to go hand in hand…I tend to overeat when I’m out with friends. Hah, and then I can make all kinds of excuses for eating things that are usually not on my healthy diet list!

It sounds like you’re in a very nice facility where you can migrate over to different areas as the need arises. You’ve certainly been blessed with a long, independent life. A friend’s mother who lives in Madison had her 93 birthday last week. She just moved to a similar facility where she is independent but has the ability to change services when warranted. That takes quite a bit of the worry away from unexpected life changes and having to move.

I hope your day at the clinic goes well. Let me know what you find out, ok? I promise I’ll always be frank and open with you so nothing is off limits. Hugs.
