Support Group Revisited

Today was the second meeting of the support group. I am happy to report that today’s meeting was more along the lines of what I expected from the group. It was more about information sharing than feelings. Colleen and I still had a few moments where we knew that it was best not to look at each other. We’ll see what meeting #3 brings us next week.

Someone has asked if I knew that the tentative September 2nd date for the party fell on the long weekend. I chose that date for a two reasons. I figured most people would be back from summer vacation (I realize that some people may be getting in their last hurrah that weekend before school starts up again). But the main reason is that it is the weekend before my last chemo treatment. When we’re looking at doing anything requiring interaction with lots of people and energy, we choose the weekend before a chemo treatment, because that is when my blood counts will be up and when I have the most energy. It really limits the dates from which I can choose.

Talk to you later,
