Doing well.

I realize it's been a while since my last blog, but no news is good news. I'm doing very well. I still have numbness in my feet which seems to be getting worse not better. It's not painful, just uncomfortable - it feels like my feet are numb from cold and I'm walking on a rubber welcome mat. And there's still a very small amount of the same in my fingers, but just slight.

I just got back from my first extended trip away from home since all this happened, and did great. We drove to visit family and friends in our hometowns in IL, and I practically felt like a whole person again. I was told if they hadn't known what I went through, you'd never know it to see me. Self-conscious about my thinned out hair, my sister-in-law who has gone through cancer recommended I get Nioxin, it's a shampoo you use every 4th day or so to help with hair growth. Her hair has come back in thick and full, so I'll see in to picking some up.

The visit was good for my soul.
