11 March 2021

 


     I ran my fifth straight five plus mile run today.  Like the first four days, it was slow.

     I received a letter from my friend Carla tonight.  She is a lymphoma survivor.  She recently had a CAT scan that revealed a four inch tumor.  She has a PET scan and an oncology consult scheduled for the seventeenth.

     When I read this, I felt sick to my stomach.  I hope she does not have to go through the hell I have gone through the last twenty plus months.

     She told me when she was originally diagnosed, she did not go through all the pain and sickness I dealt with. 

     I never knew a person could experience as much pain and sickness as I endured in the second half of 2019, plus in a few stops since.  To think she might have to endure that is haunting.
