Hi everyone,

So today was supposed to be the last treatment, but there’s been a bit of a setback. A couple weeks ago, the day before I was supposed to have a treatment, I tested positive for COVID. Obviously, that meant I couldn’t have treatment for a while, so everything got pushed back. My 2nd-to-last treatment is today, and then my last one is now on November 1st. 

COVID sucked. I had chills and a fever for several days, and I was throwing up too. I couldn’t keep water down for a while, and I was so thirsty. I didn’t get much sleep either because I was constantly too hot or too cold. Fortunately, I don’t think I’m dealing with any longer-term effects of COVID other than just a sucky few days. I’m very thankful for that.

I’ll post another longer update after my next treatment, I just wanted to give an update about the schedule setback and let everyone know that I’m feeling ok after COVID. 

Thank you so much to everyone who’s brought food, sent cards, and sent texts of prayers, well-wishes, support, and encouragement. It truly means so much to me.
