Journal entry by Maya Cavelti —
Heather completed another round of chemotherapy on April 17th. Her friend Brenna took her to UCSF, and they had great talks about personal growth, trusting the strength of their talents, and collaborating to better the world around them. We are so grateful for Brenna; these conversations are an inspiration to all of us. I am so impressed with Heather's strength and fortitude!
Heather has been resting and is fatigued, has numbness in her fingers and her toes, and has crushing bone pain mainly in her legs. These unfortunate side effects can subside a little with time, but it is extremely draining for her. Your continual support brings her much solace. Special shout-outs to Molly for the matzah ball soup that hit the spot, Mom and William's extraordinary support with special goodie bags, and Lucy, Heather's loyal doggy (dragon seal) companion.
We are looking forward to the last scheduled chemotherapy appointment on May 8th. However, there is still a lot to be discovered and she will need continued care to support her whole metaphysical being as she recovers post-chemo. We cannot thank you enough for all of your support! We are sending so much love to Heather's amazing support team.
With love and gratitude,
Maya
