All's Well from the ICU

I went in Monday night to the Brigham ICU and actually got some sleep. Then I had an 8 hour influsion of both the Taxol and Carboplatin without incident. I left at about 6:30 pm and Bill and I went to the Elephant Walk for dinner. Then I spent the night in Concord. My sister, Susan brought me back to Nonquitt today via Boston Interiors in Stoughton. All is well. I hope that you are all enjoying the summer. It is a little cool here, but I assume warmer elsewhere.

Good job, Maura. We can now start counting down on these infusions. October will be here very soon.
I am at DFCI on Tuesday, Sep 9th, so maybe we can meet up then.
I'm always available for a chat, too.

Hi Maura, I'm so glad you are getting along well with all this and you that you are in Nonquitt, your happy place. The girls and I will be heading up to Newburyport on Monday but it is not the same without our friends thru the hedge. Call if you need anything. Steph, Adam and the girls

Hi Maura,
We were gone awhile ~ Treasure Cay from 06/25-07/11. Erika and Benny arrived on 07/08 and they plan to leave on the 18th. Water was warmer than April but, of course, the color was that wonderful light blue. We thought about all of you and the fun in April. I hope you were able to open the cd and view the pictures.
I imagine Nonquitt is great tonic. The Cape is beautiful, as is MV. Went over yesterday to prepare for renters.
It is wonderful news that you've settled in to correct dosages, they'll take good care of you.
Hi to everyone.
Love,
Cassy

Hi Maura,
You do rather make this sound like "a walk in the park," and you ARE one tough cookie! I loved seeing you, Bill, Emily, Nathaniel, Susan, Robert and Bill 2last weekend. You look beautiful! I'm awed by how well you are putting up with all this junk you have to do this summer! You are the model patient, in my eyes. Keep on keeping on! We are ALL cheering for you!
You are incredible, Maura.
Much love, Kate
