Thank you so so much for your kind reply, Zebra! I will hope for the best and I am thinking the three days of numbness might get me through the worst of it anyway, pain wise.

I wonder how long it will take me to be healed enough that I can lift my arms enough to wash my own hair and wear sweaters that go over my head instead of button down things?

I’m hoping after the first week, I might be recovered enough to sit at my easel and paint, but I will play it by ear. Surely after two weeks I will have reached that point.

Thank you again so much for your help!

This is the first step in beating this cancer, so I’m going to get it done and do whatever else I need to do to stay alive!

Wishing you all the best, and no cancer ever again! ❤️🌹

I painted by day 14… no interest before then but seated or standing at an easel was not a problem as I lowered the easel to avoid stretching. Lifting my paint box and squeezing out paint from certain tubes was the issue I needed help with.

Best to you on your recovery🌸
