Dear family and friends,
After a very good first day following the first chemo, night before last, yesterday, and last night have been not that good: body pain and constipation. I just called the Dr. and he increased the pain medication and doubled the remedy for constipation... so I am looking forward to some relief this afternoon and a better night sleep.
My sister Gracie came in from Rochester yesterday and will be with me this week. Javi went back to Miami after filling the freezer with three different kinds of soups and a couple of delicious Cuban dishes. I have been eating pretty well...
I have been reading the emails many of you have sent me for which I am so grateful!! I feel enveloped by your love, concern... and believe me, I am energized by your prayers and good wishes. I beg you to continue to walk with me this pilgrimage to health... Un abrazo -- two for each you send me!

ReplyDeleteDear Ada Maria. So glad to hear you are surrounded by family and good food. I am sending all my good energy and prayers to you. I am sad, as I am sure you are, that we cannot learn and laugh together in Turkey in May. Keep good spirit and know that you are deeply loved and missed. Melanie
ReplyDeleteQuerida Ada Maria: Aqui estamos todas y hasta el Nino Piojo rezando contigo y por ti!
ReplyDeleteHe tratado de seguir las instrucciones de Alex y poner mi e-mail en tu blog pero como soy un desastre tecnologico no encuentro el lugar "follow by e-mail" para escribir mi e-mail, fogartyeg@aol.com
Es posible que vaya a NY este verano. Me daria mucho gusto verte si voy.
Deja que todos te mimen ahora despues de todo lo que has hecho por otros! Tequiero mucho! Julita
Hola Cholita...My love and prayers and with you. Dios 'Aprieta' pero no ahorca...te mande un mensajito en tu pagina de Facebook. Besos Hazel
ReplyDeleteDear Ada,
ReplyDeleteI haven't seen you for a long time but thanks to Pam I learned of your whereabouts. It is a rotten deal you have cancer. I am reminding God day and night you are a servant and soldier for justice and peace and you must have a path of recovery!!! Dearest Ada, may God's healing strength be with you.
