FUN Wednesday

Another great chemo day! After chemo we went to the High Line then to Chelsea Market to pick up lunch and then back to the Highline to dine outside. On the way home I mentioned to my girlfriend Susan that Wednesday is a perfectly day for the middle day of the week and I must stop calling it chemo day. She agreed with me it is so much more. She called it a day of Fun, Food, Fitness and Chemo. This morning the #6 was not running uptown from 53rd and Lex so we walked to 66th and 2nd and then we walked part of the High Line, the Chelsea Market and then part of the High Line again then on to Penn Station. In between we enjoyed a lovely lunch of lobster bisque, shrimp wrap, lobster roll and yes we were a little bad we ate the home made chips and before lunch we ate our two customary tri color cookies; one for each of us. Unfortunately my sister Jackie, who also went to Chemo with me, left us just before lunch to return to work. It was a truly wonderful day. The topper was I called my girlfriend Lorraine who prays me through Wednesday mornings and asked her if she prayed for fun. She shared she prayed for fun for some children who were attending a grief camp. I believe those prayers carried over to me also. I also believe those children had a truly wonderful day filled with fun since that was the prayer request. God leads I try to follow since there was a part of me that did not think I could do the High Line today since recently I am very tired after chemo. Today was no exception, I was even tired before and I was asleep even before the Benadryl was administered and I slept in the cab all the way downtown. I thank Jackie for taking us downtown and God for giving me the stamina to have FUN. I thank God for the strength to walk on numb feet and have FUN. I also thank God for all of you who like Lorraine are praying me through WEDNESDAYS.
