The Long Stretch

We’ve come through the most critical part of Roger’s bone marrow transplant.  The adrenaline that carried us through those first few weeks is spent.  We’re in the long stretch now.  Continued steady progress makes us less attention-worthy and therefore, more isolated.  

Now that we are beyond survival mode, we lift our heads and look to the future.  I guess this is what it’s like to survive a tornado.  We’re alive, but our world is fractured.  We must pick up and go forward. We will begin the reconstruction slowly, step by step.   

Our first act is to renegotiate the deal.  You’ll forgive me if this is not particularly funny.  I think my sense of humor will return in time too.  In the mean time, at least we can laugh at ourselves.
