Getting Through The Door

Why is that building leaning?!

We have been talking lately about The Doors Of Mercy but today I had to get myself through the Doors of the Cancer Treatment Center. I know that I talked about this before but it is a massive challenge for me to get my brain wrapped around another treatment. Each time it’s the same story, how do I get myself through that door to this place.

One of the things that make it easier are all the people that I have fun with here. Doctors, nurses, assistants, receptionists are my friends and fellow walkers on this trail. We have great conversations and buoy each other up. If it weren’t for that I would be in trouble.

I was just laughing, yea see. And I have corner room this day. There is a cloudless sky over Seattle today out the window. What a beauty of a day!

Well, that’s what it seems like today. I wish that I would have something brilliant or earthshaking to report but it doesn’t seem like it. I was joking with Dr Gold earlier about the fact that I was a boring patient with nothing new to report. Well, of course, boring is a good thing in this situation. It means that Doc Gold formula was working.

I told him that the challenge these days for me was keeping my head together. Physically I am in reasonably great shape and that’s the boring part now. We have that solved. Now keeping the mind and spirit going was the challenge. Not too different from running a distance race.

Well, a couple more hours should get me finished up here. Then I’ll make it back to the Island. Best to you today, love, Felipe.x
