Please don't be mad was the subject line of my friend's email. She had arranged a few meals for me next week. In her email, she explained that she was telling me, not asking me. I thought it was really funny since I can't say that I have ever been mad at her. Apparently, there is this notion that I don't accept help very well.
This week, I was struggling to say no to something that I really want to do. When I told my friend about it, she replied, "You are not doing that." Of course, she is right. Although, I hate to admit it.
I was hoping to be liberated of my 24 hour pump today but we are going to keep it going a few more days and maybe stop it at the end of next week. I am going to get my port placed on Thursday so we can check that off the list of new experiences. My darling husband and friends have it all worked out. So, I just have to show up at the appropriate time. I confirmed the order for sedation so I can rest better now. One of the nurses didn't think that I needed sedation to which my doctor replied, "She needs sedation." Can I just say that I really appreciate him even when I really don't like his plans for me?
Today, I am thankful for my cleaning lady who came to visit today. I am also thankful for my friends who arranged a fun lunch outing and visit from the other side of town. I am thankful for all the cooks in my life and two weeks of spring break from Chinese school on Saturday to hang out with my husband and my daughter.
Blessings,
Cindy
