Shakespeare’s Wisdom

Image
In Macbeth, Shakespeare wrote, "Give sorrow words. The grief that does not speak whispers the o'er-fraught heart and bids it break." This is why we blog. Yes, it's a great way to share information with everyone who cares to know. But it is the processing of our grief that it manifests its greatest power. There is not much to report right now. I am back on the chemo pill called Votrient. It's main side effects (for me anyway) are fatigue and it causes hair to turn white. A bed and hair dye are easy remedies. I'm taking a walk almost daily; usually a couple miles at a time. It's not my mileage of the past, but I'm happy for every step. Between my naps I'm feeling pretty good, enough to be productive around the house little bit, important for my sanity. The elusive pain is omnipresent, but drugs and movement help a little.
