Reflections 2/20/2020: The plot thickens! The deal gets even sweeter! What we had just been convinced to buy at their unbelievable low price NOW has EXTRAS, a bonus for being dupes to their persuasion! Music to our ears! Except NOW I feel like I’m stuck in a never ending infomercial that keeps adding on stuff I REALLY don’t want! This week’s add-on is an allergic reaction to something, that got so bad that it landed me in the hospital again! Hello Room 416!  Same fourth floor, different door. They have me tranquilized so as not to give a rip about the unceasing impulse to scratch every square inch of my body. And IV steroids with Benadryl to counter the histamines surging, devil-may-care through my body. My legs look like a linebacker’s thick trunks (look out Ed!), and my hands, feet and face feel like they are encased in water balloons.😬 But the upside is that the itches are getting less and the welts are smoothing down to just bright red blotches! I’ll take progress in any form at this point! God, thank You for modern medicine! And nurses and doctors who really care about me. And drug recourses that are giving me some reprieve. Chemo is calling and I need to get well enough to plow on through it. Can’t do that in this swollen, reptilian state! Give us all wisdom to know what to do next. God, be my Valium of peace, serenity, and patience to weather this onslaught!
