Up, down. Up, down. I feel like that is the way this journey plays out, day after day. Yesterday was a pretty good day, but today, oh today was a doozy.

I don’t know what happened. Maybe I overdid it yesterday. Maybe I slept in an awkward position overnight. Maybe a little of both. Either way, this day has thrown me for a loop.

Bobby from physical therapy was here today. He went pretty easy on me after seeing how much pain I was in. He did, however, ask me to take a practice step up a single stair. I couldn’t do it. I couldn’t even lift my leg off the floor.

Tonight we are trying some memory foam that a friend dropped off. Stephen has cut it down to fit on the recliner’s seat cushion.

Tomorrow morning we see the oncologist, Dr. Sarma. We have been waiting for the pathology report on the biopsy to come back. Hopefully we will have a lot more answers and the beginnings of a game plan.
