Dr. Abonour and I had a minor disagreement yesterday: I asked, "still dormant", he replied "no, you are currently in remission" which is, of course better. I wondered how one with non-curable MM could be in remission, he said because all your blood tests so indicate at this time. I suppose I have to defer to him, but I am more than a little disturbed that I have to attribute my fatigue to age, which he has suggested with a smile for sometime now. Who's sorry now??
On a bit more serious note, and with no disrespect to others, I have thought, despite having cancer, I am much better health wise than many of my contemporaries. I continue to have foot problems, for which Dr. Abonour has just prescribed a drug which might help, and I do get tired, but, so what, I drive wherever I want to go, eat what I want, sleep (not for long but that may be because I think of getting to my reading and to this PC), and am, for example, planning a three day visit to Atlanta (with Laura) to see sister Jan and to see Whit play with the Emory basketball team - can't think of any place I would rather go.
I see Dr. Abonour next on March 4, so will get back to this soon thereafter. In the meantime, I will say "remission" even at the expense of those hearing that wanting to talk about something more important.
Whatever will be, will be.
