The cough continues...

Sophie spoiled with more than toys today.

Oh yes, the cough continues.  I am going to try a new drug today.  As part of the Benton Hospice service I get a massage every week.  The massage is today and I look forward to a nice relaxing morning.  Cindy, the masseuse,  is quite a dog person and loves to spoil Sophie too.  We are in for a good day.  How about you?  Find something good to do today.  Janette

Cough

We are still working on getting rid of my cough.  It really surfaces when I talk and do activity.  It has been difficult to have visitors or talk on the telephone because of the cough.  Once I do get a handle on that cough know that the conversation will be on happenings and not my boring health challenge of yesterday or today.   

Communication

In 1999, I was diagnosed with breast cancer.  In 2005, I was diagnosed with colon cancer.  I fought it with surgery and chemotherapy for months.  Several years later I was termed "cancer-free".  Then in 2009, I found that it surfaced again and I resumed my fight against cancer.  On June 29, 2011, I entered in the Benton Hospice Service.  I am changing this blog to focus more on keeping you informed of these happenings in my life.  I have been very poor in keeping up with people who care for and love me.  I hope this will improve my communication with all of you special people in my life.  Thank you for your love.  Janette
