About 40 minutes after posting yesterday’s update, I climbed into bed and had an attack of Republicosis so severe that, although I made it to my chair, I Republicated my pants before I reached the throne. Wendy had to come and take care of me. She talked to my oncology doctor’s nurse. It turns out the dietitian was wrong. They will allow her in to my infusion next Tuesday. Dr. Brosden may lower my chemo dose. I feel very weak, but I’m hoping to be partially in the saddle on Thursday. BIG Hugs to all.

It was my hope to climb back in the saddle. but I must not be ready. I slept from 8:00 PM last night until 8:00 AM this morning. By the time I finished medical scheduling mayhem, I feel too tired to do anything else. My Oncologist plans a better anti-Republicosis med to take after next weeks infusion. My dietitian also made more suggestions. Monday Hugs. Kitty, Kitty bedtime.

Once again, I’m sorry I’m still down. I’m doing everything I can to evade another trip to the hospital. May you all have a great weekend. Hugs to all!

I’m in a huge rush as I have to be in the lobby for the TriMet Lift Bus from 6:22 to 5:52 AM. I will not have time for the TVU or Short Takes. I’ll try to add a “home safe” comment this afternoon. Oh God, it’s Monday!

Cartoon:

Godwin’s Law: a common meme used by Republicans, other fascists, pseudo-intellectuals, and people with their heads in the sand or in smellier places, whenever anyone points out the verifiable commonalities between today’s Republican Party and Germany’s National Socialist Party in the mid-1930s. Germany could have stopped criminal Fuhrer Hitler. Can we stop criminal Fuhrer Trump*?

After several days in the hospital, the cat is back in the CatBox. Apparently my chemo wiped out my immune system, and I caught a bug that brought raving Republicosis. The first two days,they quarantined me and tested me for Trump* virus twice. I am not guilty! Then they loaded me with antibiotics. WWWendy brought me home last night. I’ll be crawling back in the saddle, barring future complications. I plan to get WWWendy and JD in touch with each other, so I don’t leave you beloved people hanging again. Hugs!
