It would be easy to only write when things are bad (and I
have been incredibly well treated and downright lucky). In my years so far things haven’t been bad
very often, so that would be the easiest thing to do. But… this sight gets a lot of hits. From people all over the world. I have no idea who they are. I can only imagine that they are new to this
miserable condition (or have a loved one or friend) and have no idea what they
are getting into. We certainly didn’t. People regularly ask to forward my blog to
someone they know who has been newly diagnosed.
And to see that I’m still here- living and loving life -how can I simply
disappear? They will think I died! I
suppose I feel the same way about this as I do my life: I’m certainly not just going to leave!
So what to do? Ten minutes
of thought has produced the following: no more e-mail distribution. That will make me feel like less of an ass. Anyone who wants to know what is happening
with me can look me up anytime they like on this website, which is http://www.thelloydnewsletter.blogspot.com/. I’ll post a link on Facebook to say when
there is a new one, but otherwise just check in whenever. I get an MRI every 2 months and I’ll try to
be more on-time with writing about those.
Incidentally, my last was on May 2 and Dr. G only came in at the end to
say ‘hi’ after a totally no-change scan.
Agh...this has been troubling me, and I finally feel
better. I’ll end it with something I
wrote very quickly above:
I suppose I feel the
same way about this as I do my life:
I’m certainly not just going to leave!
I’m certainly not just going to leave!
Love, -Kristina (&Mark)
