6 May - Update from Kate

Thanks to all your prayers that we are blanketed in, we continue to do well. Today's visit into NYC ended up being quite a bit longer than the 1 hour I told the parking garage attendant when we dropped the car off!! After the usual visit with the Dr., he decided to have me have a sonogram to follow up on the sono's while I was hospitalized.

So we had to hang out for a 3pm sonogram. I also learned that the evening rush hour out of NYC on the LIE starts at 3:30pm

I asked the Dr about resuming my water aerobics. He said as long as I had no open wounds, I could give it a try. When I asked about using public transportation, he said that was up to me. He said some people wait a month, some wait a year and others wait what ever time in that window. Well it looks like my friend and I will be using the trains next week because my appointment is scheduled for 9:40am and there is no good time to drive in for an appointment at that hour. I will be wearing a mask and will be armed with Purell! (Maybe I'll get a seat!)

No antibiotics this week, the White Blood Cell (WBC) count was back to a normal range. The iron count is creeping up ever so slowly. I continue to take an iron supplement.

Driving this past week was great. A new sense of freedom - even thought I only drove to mass and to grocery shop!

Thanks again for keeping us in your prayers.

Love
Kate & Fran
