Back to Real Life

I am back from 10 days of vacation in sunny Florida. I felt completely relaxed and recharged. I didn’t have access to wifi during my trip, so I was only on my phone when I needed to be. The rest of the time I did tai chi, be a tourist, watched a lot of sunsets and rested.

Good thing I did all that because I came home to a sick child. David caught something on his German trip. He said his roommate was coughing the whole time. I got home on Thursday night and took David to the doctor’s on Friday morning. She said David has either a very nasty cold (there is one going around) or walking pneumonia. 🙁 She prescribed antibiotics (of course), it helped the cough a little but gave him vomiting and diarrhea. Oh, the poor boy is miserable and I am terrified of catching what he has but I still have to take care of him so I wear masks around the house. My next round of chemo is only two days away so I hope he turns the corner by then!

Meanwhile, I go about my days as normal as possible. Our tai chi group had a very nice holiday celebration potluck on Saturday. Another wonderful year is behind us. I so appreciate the friendship and support from this group. I look forward to practicing with everyone next year!
