It's Friday so...

...the weekend is here. Sorry, I couldn't come up with a better title today!

Spoke with John a couple of days ago and he seems to be okay. Okay, for him, I mean. His attitude is good, is eating well, but he's weak. He received more platelets this week. I'll call him again this weekend.

I may have a little flare-up of the lymphedema. My upper right arm has been sore and I thought maybe it was the way I slept or maybe sore from yard work. I examined my arm a little more closely and I think it's slightly more swollen than usual. I'm having my oncologist's office fax a script to my physical therapist so I can get in next week for some therapy. I haven't been very conscientious about lifting heavy things with my right arm so that may be why there's a flare-up. It's hard NOT to use my right arm for most things. Sigh.
