Steady Progress

My bloodwork has continued to improve in all areas, and my CMV is at last negative, and I am down to half the dose of the intense anti-viral. We are seeing if I can get all my magnesium orally, and if I can, my line will be pulled soon - which is good, because it is falling out. I will be ecstatic to get my body back - it has been a source of constant unease.

And my energy continues to improve, and of course, for me that means taking care to pace myself. I'm not doing much really, just a little more exercise and some of my own housework and errands. Dennis and I have had some nice meals out, and our first movie in months.

So things look good, though I have learned to be guarded in my optimism.

Lucy is having fun in France, comes back Monday. I have missed her. But I have been seeing more of Owen, who is always a joy to be with.

I miss hearing from many of you, so when you feel like it, send me an email and let me know how you are doing. annebocc@sonic.net or annebocchino@gmail.com.

Love,
Anne

Hi Anne,
I think you have an appt tomorrow to get some test results and hopefully get your line removed. I have my fingers crossed for you that it all goes well.
We are baking in 100 degree heat. Everything is brown and wilted. I am starting to look forward to winter!
Hope your weather is better than ours so you can enjoy the outdoors. Let us know how it goes tomorrow.
Love from your NC cousins and Aunt Mad
