One down, another to go

My recovery after the last 12th chemo was relatively easy and familiar to the bone now, so, of course as soon as the fatigue subsided, I was off enjoying Boston with friends and family. 

Love, Love Boston... the weather cooperated and this week happened to be restaurant week --- even better.

As my white and red cells counts are too low for the next week's new chemotherapy, and the insurance failed to deliver a Granix shot on time -- the best prescription that I know to get these cells up is fun, friends, sun, meat and cod liver sandwiches (the last one beats raw beet juice any time)!
