Day Zero Plus Forty-five – “They fly ze peoples to ze moons…”

Today we were back to routine - nurse visit and IV infusion in the a.m.  However, for fun we added afternoon napping to our agenda.  We were both pretty tired from the wedding weekend festivities.  Jeff sneezed a couple of times this morning and thought he’d picked up a cold at the wedding.  It hasn’t developed further so I think he’s in the clear.

 Jeff had tummy troubles and wasn’t able to eat much.  After dinner we decided to try to get a walk in.  We were stopped at the end of our driveway by our neighbor, Greg.  He stopped mowing long enough to get an update on Jeff and to express his anger that Jeff has to go through this.  I think he finds the mask and gloves off-putting.  He probably isn’t alone but we are so used to it that we sometimes forget how it appears to other people.  Greg says, “They fly ze peoples to ze moons and still ze cancer…” 

I visited Facebook more times today than I have in the last three months, I think.  There have been some postings of wedding photos.  Jeff’s talented niece, Elizabeth, got a couple of beautiful shots outside the chapel.  Our friend, Emily, shot some video so Pop can see the wedding.  We will be re-living the day for many days, I think.
