Keepin' It Boring

We're following the advice the PA gave us in the hospital, "Keep it Boring."
So, we're keeping the magnesium infusion going. Step 1 is to have a cup of coffee so that you're awake, although Real Nurses are certainly able to do this in their sleep. And, we're keeping the rash from GVHD under control with the Goop Regimen. We're going to the doc's appointments for the "So far, so good" pronouncements. These vary in level of enthusiasm. One doc who dresses up as Santa for the kiddies gave us a "Ho! Ho! Ho!" in addition to his recommendations. Another doc hardly makes a peep. Life is Good for some definition of good.

As I get older, I have come to realize that "boring" is good! Keep it up.

Joe's Gathering

Welcome to Joe's Gathering, where you can get updates on how Joe's doing. Named after the Friday Gatherings which "are a remote, faint echo of the happy hour at the Old Town Tavern that used to take place, it seems like (it was in fact) decades back. There is no agenda, no theme, no structure of any kind, just old (and getting older all the time) Ann Arborites, chatting about food, drink, jobs, and whatever else is going around. There is always a bottle or two of wine on hand, and some folks bring their own. There is usually some kind of food, and again, some people are moved to bring comestibles. Neither is required...Oh, and who the heck are we, anyway? Your hosts, Linda and Joe, that's whom."
