Karen's Day at Shands

Karen wanted a place for family and friends to be able to see how she is doing each day at Shands. This is how she is making that happen.

camper fever

December28

Hi everyone.  Some of us are getting a little stir crazy here in the camper.  luckily we have wi fi and tv and bananagrams, and lots of food.  Momma does a lot of farming on facebook, dad sings and plays the guitar and Don works on the computer.  That leaves me …wonder what I’m doing.   We still have to go to clinic and I will start getting platelets tomorrow.  My white count has made it to zero and my red cells are getting low.  That means we have to be alot more careful about infection.   All in all I feel really good, but am starting to feel a little short of breath when I’m moving around.

Don and I have been taking some beautiful drives through the country here.  It is so gorgeous.  There are some very old neighborhoods with unbelievable old oak trees.  Some of these trees are bigger than a Car at the trunk bases.  they are enormous.  We have gone by some horse farms and antique shops and old fashions creamerys that make icecream from jersey cows they milk themselves.  This area has such an old fashion appeal. 

I hope all of you had a wonderful Christmas!  I am looking forward to seeing my children soon, and coming home as soon as I can.  love you all.
